Waiting for like 8 seconds for a website to load, only for it to tell me it’s “old school” and can’t handle my phone was kind of hilarious.

- op00to 2y agoDoes it work with lynx?
- Waterluvian 2y agoUnfortunately I have no clue. I’m running Mosaic.
- zoky 2y agoIt does indeed, and as a matter of fact that seems to be the only way I can view it on my phone.
- scrps 2y agoThat's... That's something. I can't tell if the fact that you had to do that is exceptionally modern or exceptionally old school.
- bittwiddle 2y agoI had the same thing. Tested on desktop for others in the game boat: its a story about repairing an old macintosh. Some pretty nice scrolling effects.
- dvt 2y agoMaybe it's just me, but I find the scrolling effects obnoxious and floaty. Like I never quite have control over what element I'm scrolling. Just imprecise enough to make it annoying af.
- cwillu 2y agoStruggled pretty badly on my pc too.
- emsign 2y agoMaybe it's a reference to the old school modem speeds back when you could take a few sips from your cup of coffee while watching a website load and build up.
- causality0 2y agoThis is why mobile browsers need genuine user agent control, not just some crappy "pwetty pwease give me the desktop version mistuh servuh" checkbox.
- simsla 2y agoFirefox mobile does (with add-ons).
- self_awareness 2y agoOn Android only I think?
- causality0 2y agoUnfortunately it does nothing for the View Window and sites still detect mobile.
- abawany 2y agoWorked well on my Pixel tablet running GrapheneOS and Fennec in landscape mode. Smooth and fast.
