@LegendBegins In my case, literally anyone I know with iOS whose browser has been mentioned or I've seen has switched. Then again, I'd also say there are notably more Androids than iOSes...Perhaps it's just location, and geography based marketing. I see far more iPhones, and don't know a single person who does not use Safari.

Yeah, we should. I’ll need to jump through some hoops to defeat bypasses, but that sort of thing is doable.

@LegendBegins A large number of mobile users, specifically. Obviously the only platforms on which Safari exists are iOS and OS X. On OS X, the mass majority of people will use a third-party browser, leaving iOS, where most people won't care enough to get a third-party browser. Like it or not iOS will most likely be the predominant mobile platform, however I'm not convinced that the number of people using mobile on the guild is so significant that there will be much of a problem.I don't agree. Not many people can sit on a computer all day, and the backup is mobile. And I'd say that around half of all mobile users are Apple users.
Most people I know have switched to Chrome on iOS.I don't know anyone that's switched to Chrome. And it's more logical to use Safari, since Apple gives Safari a benefit that other browsers don't have, that makes it faster. I've found all other browser apps to be slower than Safari, and less convenient to use.
@Captain Jordan
I don't particularly agree. Safari, at least in my experience, has very few issues, and those of which that do arise are generally due to the server and not the browser.
@Ellri
I'm in favor of making the buttons yellow.
@Mahz
Though it may be hard to work with, I guarantee a large number of users use Safari.
@LegendBegins Alright, think I fixed the userbar-wrapping issue by just displaying "You" instead of username for now.Nope, everything looks fixed. Thank you.
Does it still wrap for you now?
<Snipped quote by LegendBegins> The pagination is one line on my screen:Yours wraps?
Yes, it does. iPhone 5, latest version of iOS 8.
And there's been a problem with the screen not automatically zooming to fit the size of my device. It's slightly bigger, which forces me to zoom out in order for it to lock in place.<Snipped quote by Captain Jordan> Yeah, on the smallest width I have to new-line those buttons since the IC/OOC/Char tabs need that room. I just pushed up a change that (on mobile) shrinks those buttons, centers them, and reduces the padding some.Could we also shrink all the profile/subscriptions/notifications links at the top, as well as the first/next/back/last page links in order to fit them into one line?
<Snipped quote by Shienvien> Damn, I'll try some random changes in a bit to see if any of them help.Whenever a new page loads, it's just slightly larger than what's fitted to my screen by a few pixels, so it allows me to scroll left and right, when there's essentially nothing there, unless I zoom out.
<Snipped quote by LegendBegins> Just pushed up a change. Any better?The wrapping problem is fixed, but the disproportionate button problem persists.
<Snipped quote by LegendBegins> Thanks. I'll take a look at the guild's auto-wrapping settings. Is it convenient for you to take a screenshot of this issue so I can be sure I'm trying to fix the right thing?
^Somewhat disproportionate stacking
^Links cutting off at the end@Shienvien:Large URls get cut off on mobile, and some links that should be stacked either in rows or all in one line shift to the next line in order to fit to mobile, and tend to look off.I implemented a "force-device-width" toggle on the user-edit page. It will be on by default when I push the changes, but you'll be able to opt out of the forced width that way. The guild currently has no forced width, but the mobile-friendly changes require me to turn it on. This will allow users to opt out of it since I'm sure my changes will make the guild worse for some smartphone/tablet users until it gets better.
For anyone curious, the force-device-width directive I'm referring to is this bit of HTML:
