This site on an iPhone?

Fish_and_Chips · 03-01-2016, 13:31

I'm using Dolphin browser (iPhone 6+) when I visit this site obviously using the mobile version of DS.

Even with text/font set to large I still find the new font on DS a bit weedy, just wondering what anyone else thinks?

I find the main site almost unusable as the fonts are too large on my 6s. The forums are okay in landscape, I just zoom a bit and can easily read a thread. Replying is horrible in landscape though.

There's a theme selector on the bottom left, pick the mobile site from that.

The pop ups are awful and make it almost unusable sometimes

That's what I've been using for last few years.

Can't stand the mobile site, much prefer to use the normal desktop version which I've never had an issue with other than the ads. (Using 6S+ now so ads are blocked)

Hearst seem keen to shoot themselves in the foot with an over-abundance of inappropriate pop-up advertising on the DS forums. I prefer not to ad-block sites I regularly use, but when it's the only way of making them viewable...

A lot of free apps are like that now, ads are just so intrusive with no option to pay a few £££ to have an ad free version. Is this the future of mobile browsing now people skip ads on TV?

I've always used the desktop version with safari and continue to do so on my 6s. Content blockers make it a very smooth experience.
