You've probably tried these suggestions, but I'll ask anyway:

• Can you increase the size of the text?
• Are you able to use the screen in landscape format?

Normal phone size is a problem, so I use a rubber-tipped stylus rather than adult male podgy fingers...

Thanks,
Landscape doesn't work very well as the keyboard takes up most of the screen

Likewise text size doesn't help much either. The issue is more how the text entry field is displayed. It doesn't seem to have any flexibility for the browser to fit it to the screen. It seems to be a fixed size, which happens to be wider than the actual screen.

I'm sure some simple tweaks or setting changes to the style template in the forum software would do it.

On climate change — we're talking, we're beginning to act, but we're still not doing enough...

I'm answering on my iPhone with Safari. It's not as easy as laptop or iPad, but it's workable. What h/w and s/w are you using...?
Android.
The problem is it seems to render more or less as a desktop site. So the test input window has very small text and doesn't fit on the screen.

Is there a mobile friendly version/option for the forum.

i use my phone most of the time, and it's terrible on mobile.
