Great job jabronis - attached picture is what the site looks like on an old phone. All the buttons are broken and do nothing, except for the Modlog which somehow is still accessible. Tried different browsers on the phone, tried clearing all the cookies and cache, still doesn't work.
EDIT: This came off a bit hot and aggro - it just sucks since pre-migration the site worked fine on my dinosaur phone, so I'm pretty frustrated. Makes me appreciate communist web-design (like marxists.org and redsails.org) even more.
If you're not meming, and I were actively working on dev for this, this shit would piss me off. Appreciate shit, for the love of God, unless you wanna go make us a shit posting site that works on this one guys phone.
We have a guy posting his homeless in Chicago diary on here for fucks sake, I think we're pretty goddamn accessible to the poor.
He is doing OK btw

Thanks, I was letting it get to me, so the sanity check will let me actually sleep tonight.
Also fwiw op made this same post in two different comms, I only saw the one that didn't take off at first but I also called him out for the ridiculous framing of the post on the other one lol

They have a duty to feed them and house them and arm them, not make them a website that met all their needs the first time in every web browser to ever exist on a mobile device. It's absurd you can't see the difference.
We're all liberals here, or we'd be logged off for opsec. You are genuinely unintelligent if you're going to have this attitude with this op about this issue instead of just asking the devs about it in good faith.
yeah, thank you for calling this behavior out. I agree OP is fine in how they updated their post. no idea why the person you’re talking to is so hostile though. deeply counter-productive, especially if they actually think this project is doing any good.
that kind of toxicity drives people away from a project. I’ve left ones in the past because of those kind of vibes.
I think this project is better than it has any right to be as the product of a bunch of people that aren't me developing it entirely in their spare or stolen time.
Totally agree. It’s honestly weird seeing someone take the “how dare this isn’t absolutely perfect immediately” attitude on someone else’s post that also even had a dev trying to troubleshoot with the person.
Like I get that we’re all alienated & broke, but what the fuck. Don’t vent that frustration at random leftists online. Reeks of liberalism.
Probably going to log off for the night instead of catching up on things here honestly. Peace.

All I said at the top was that this might be an almost impossible issue to fix, and the devs are donating a lot of labor, so maybe don't be shitty about it when it's apple that's fucked you anyway (not you, op).
I have been saying this the entire fucking time, I just appreciate the amount of effort to payoff this will have for the devs over fixing literally anything else. Holy shit.

Because that's a bad faith framing that is overly hostile to the devs for the amount of work that's already been put in. I want the devs to feel appreciated so they don't just fucking quit. But apparently. We should just insult them when things don't happen to work on devices no one could have planned for.
Also, because you might not know this, there is a wide gulph between "making the site accessible on old phones" and making the site work on a really out of date apple os.

Well apparently suggesting that it's a tough issue to fix in this particular case and maybe the op shouldn't be an asshole to the devs was too much for you because you went off about me hating the poor for that.

Do you understand the difference? In one case,.we understand that things take time and we go ask the devs on the feedback comm if this can be addressed. In the other case, we act like it was trivial and they're bad for reemerging because it apparently broke shit on a virtually untestable edge case.
No, I said complaining rudely about it not already being accessible on outdated phones was denigrating our dev comrades.

I see that op has an edit, and I think that makes it basically fine.
They didn't ask, they whined about it not already being there.
deleted by creator
Sure
thank you
this is very much a touchy issue for me
i apologise for being angry online
and calling you what americans would consider a slur
that was childish of me
Oh, well then, excuse me for not having you on my up to date list of people who get to pop off about certain aspects of the site because they've definitely thanked the devs enough.
Equating "website that works on a 10 yo iphone that apple can shut off at any moment, and frankly, basically already has" with "a duty to help the people build communism by building a mass movement and meeting their needs to survive" is the most narcissistic and deluded equivocation I've ever seen. You don't need to touch grass, you need to throw your phone into the fucking ocean.
It's no car battery, but it'll have to do
