I used to use Linux on my desktop PC a few years ago, but I kept having issues with the display scaling, so I eventually gave up and went back to Windows. :idunno
I still have a VPS with Linux (CentOS).
Had some personal stuff happen a few years ago. Been super slow to relearn what I'd lost the last 2-odd years. Currently have 4 PC's with dual boot (microcrap and a Linux flavor) Puppy(the legacy OS), Mint (2 versions), and a Peppermint OS(I think?). I've played with several versions of ubuntu the last year or so..... "Didn't feel the love" & well, I miss my early 2000's versions of Red Hat & mandriva's previous version.
 
Hmmm And I always thought it just meant all your girlfriends were getting married and having you as a bridesmaid, but nobody ever asked YOU for your hand (that is, to marry them) and hence you were never the bride. But of course that’s a (usually humorous) metaphor for all kinds of things you might feel that you keep getting left out of.
Well, I was a DJ in Junior college and did a tonne of receptions and heard "A LOT" of stories during those events......
 
I'm SHOCKED nobody has noticed the increased icon sizes in the navigation on mobile.
I'm sorry. I noticed the new grouping of icons in the mobile top bar is different and it's pixel size doesn't appear to be "larger" to my g33kie eyes.
 
I have noticed the icons in the top nav have been increased and I can now see the ‘Thread Starter’ in portrait mode on my phone. Thank you!

I still have a few concerns and one wish.

My concern deals with the amount of screen (on an iPhone 6) that is revealed when posting. More room seems to be taken up by the lines circled in red showing “...more posts notification, page navigation, and the text editor icons.” These leave the poster with very little room to touch and scroll up or down to complete the post.

Then, heaven forbid, try to insert the famous BYC emojis (which I love). The entire page is used by the emojis, not to mention it can only be used once before needing to close it to continue posting. I miss how it stayed open for the use of multiple emojis during the post.:yesss:

My screen literally goes from this,

to this.

It’s a bummer. :hmm I placed red X’s over the screenshots because it got a bit confusing.

Once I have attached pictures, my amount of workable screen is reduced to a mere 1.75”, literally. I am a proofreader and the extremely small section that shows what I’m proofing makes it a bit difficult. (Watch out now cause I’m not gonna proof anything.🤣) I used to have a full phone screen of post to look at when proofing.

I use an iPhone 6 and I know some will say I should upgrade, but I’d rather spend my 1K on my chickens and their facilities and my time taking care of and loving them. :idunno

So many times I will touch the screen to scroll and it won’t. Simply because I’m not sure exactly where to touch.

After all that my wish change seems insignificant, but I’ll type it anyway. I would still like to see the Total # of Posts along with each Individual Post #, in the post header bar. An example would be: #546 / #4023.

I certainly hope this makes sense and thanks for listening. 🙏🏻
I have a skosh shy of an inch of window-in a window to type a comment/reply/ what have you......
 
I have a question - not sure if it is my stupidity or an issue with the site. When I try to post a photo from my phone it ends up sideways with no way to rotate it. I don't have that issue on my PC. But I do on my iPhone. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
@CarpCharacin or @Nifty-Chicken, any ideas what causes this?

Can you take a screenshot of how you are uploading the picture?
