The forum should certainly work with Safari, too.
It works without any issue on my Mac with Safari, Edge, Brave and Chrome.
It also works well on my phone with Chrome and Edge.
I've also just tried it on my iPad with Safari. Also looks good.

It's fine with Safari on my Mac as well. Haven't tried other browsers.

Also, when I try to reply or enter a new post using my iPad, I get a huge screen where I can enter text. However, there's no place to click "submit". I can't scroll to the bottom, because it never ends. In the background, I can scroll past posts, but not see them because of the huge white box.

Rebooted my iPad. Still can't post from there. No "submit" button.

This is the corresponding screenshot from the iPad. Looks like your Submit button is hidden unter the top tool pane.

@George-K I can replicate your problem.
If I increase the size of the post window too much, both the submit button is hidden and also the double arrow symbol with which I can make the post window smaller is hidden, so I'm kind of stuck.
I guess it should revert back to normal size if I clear caches etc.

Yeah, the problem is that the "resize" thing is also hidden.
Maybe you can revert back to normal size when clearing cookies/caches?

how do I resize the post window on the iPad?
Try landscape vs portrait
Just a thought

Tried that - no luck. Restarted the browser, then the iPad.
Clearing the cache worked.

I notice that the "Search" no longer has options to search for who posted a topic. Also absent is the ability to restrict the search to a specific timeframe (ie, "in the last month").

Looks like some or maybe even all of the issues go away if we do use the new "Harmony" theme instead of our old "Persona" theme. The minor inconveniences of the "Harmony" theme may be the smaller evil compared to the bugs we see now.
I'll wait until I hear back from Jon whether that would also solve his problems.

On iPad, I had to use a different browser, FireFox, to get around that.

What's the difference between these themes?

What you see here is "Persona". What you see in the test clone I set up, and what we had briefly in the beginning of the new NodeBB version, is "Harmony".

OK, I've changed the theme back to Harmony. It solves a couple of issues.

I'm annoyed by the tiny size of embedded YT videos, but maybe I can do something about it.

You can always click on the link. They weren't really that big in the last version either.

I don't like the chat window much but it's not a big deal.
