    I think the idea of this forum software is to make the website itself mobile-friendly, such that no app is needed.

    If you view this on a mobile device, you'll see that it's rendered differently.

        There's also a "slick" forum theme that we can try, which I believe is even more compact.

        I'll change to "slick" such that we can take a look, ok?

                OK. Changing the theme requires some updates that will take the forum down for three minutes or so. See you in a bit.

                      @Klaus Looks like quoted text is enlarged, but the original post is a bit smaller?

                        We also have plenty of options for color/font schemes. Please let me know if you find something interesting. This is just a subset.

                            Your first job as administrator is then to find out how to change the skin and do it 🙂

                                Posting this from an iPhone using Safari.
                                So far so good.

                                  Can we have a personal preference for the skins?

                                    Yes, I set mine to “Darkly” and it works for me.

                                      Click or tap on your own avatar at the top right corner, choose “Settings”, scroll down to select/set “theme.”

                                          I must say that I like the way the forum is displayed on mobile devices. It's an efficient, uncluttered interface to the forum.
