For the love of God would this forum please do whatever it is to have a decent mobile experience! At this point if I am bored enough that I want to get irritated all I have to do is try to use YW on my mobile. A little investment would be nice.

and now for the commencement of people flaming me for my thread...

Good ideas are not welcomed here! Lol

I think we discussed this before and nothing happened, oh well at least MI has it...

I guess I will just have to really get myself to using speech to text.

Funny but YW is one of the only sites that works relatively well on my mobile device.

Pretty straight forward site. The phone handles it pretty well.

mazilla · 05-12-2012, 03:37 AM

I hate mobile versions of anything...full site for me only.

cali yaris · 05-12-2012, 10:34 AM

I have trouble with a lot of sites using my netbook I've been carrying around. Sites with a wide header can't squeeze onto the browser window; true of the MI site as well. Scrolling side to side to read a page sucks.

Do a lot of people use netbooks, or did we all just skip to smartphones?

why? · 05-12-2012, 10:57 AM

I looked at getting a netbook, but for $200 or more to me it just wasn't worth it over a 15" laptop with the power to do a lot more and a decent battery life. But for me the screens were all too small, I had a headache within 5 minutes on most of them.

catliektheif · 05-12-2012, 11:13 AM

i was using a netbook for a good two years, but then i got a 17 inch laptop :)

fnkngrv · 05-12-2012, 12:38 PM

IDK...all I know is that on my Samsung Charge with GB and the stock browser it handles YW like complete crap. The screen shutters a lot, doesn't scroll while typing, shifts back to the top of the page on forums, etc. Tapatalk works smooth like butter.

I picked up a netbook from a friend for 1 single purpose and that is the FIC. Still have to scroll a tiny bit, but it is usable at least and can be tucked under the seat. I had both the iPad and iPad II and sold the II to Thomas. I can easily live without a netbook, iJunk, etc especially with how powerful smartphones have become...that is as long as web portal owners take some initiative to stay up with the times.

I agree, I am with tomato with this one. This site works fine for me on my phone. I am also not a big fan of mobile sites.

have you used Tapatalk before? It is not a mobile site. It is a full blown and functional application.

mazilla · 05-21-2012, 10:47 AM

^ why would I need it? This site(and every other one ive come across to date) work just fine on my Iphone...there is no difference between my phone and my PC quality wise, they look identical. I say you get an Iphone and be done with it. ;)

cali yaris · 05-21-2012, 11:18 AM

^ How about you respect someone else's wish for an application that works for them? You don't need it; I think we got that.

Tapatalk is way faster to review new posts, for example - that's a feature I like.

Ummm... it doesn't mean you have to uninstall your phone's browser, by the way...

No I haven't. I was misinformed then by my a fellow co-worker. I will look into this more personally then before making decision on that. I thought it was like the other apps I have seen for mobile webs. Always been a pita for me.
