Search page on mobile
-
Hi,
I'm often using my phone to check if there's a torrent on something I just stumped on to put it on my wishlist.
However, on my mobile, the search page is difficult to use, since the actual search field is so small.
Would it be possible to change the layout on mobiles?
Thanks

@jpo I never use it on mobile, but out of interest is landscape mode no better?

the size of the elements is far from being the biggest annoyance in the mobile version, this site is pretty much abandoned, i suspect if one day the torrent upload page stops working it will stay broken forever, because everything else that doesn't work haven't been fixed for ages

@ianfontinell-0 Almost exactly 2 years ago I asked about getting a single line of text removed/updated on the page explaining bonus points. 3 months later a mod eventually replied that it was something that could only be done by Joker. It still has the wrong information on it, so I agree that the chances of improvements to the functionality of the site are but a fevered dream.
I don't mean any of that in a nasty way. I have no idea if the site is some sort of commercial investment that actually makes the owners a bit of money or if it runs at a loss and is just kept going in an altruistic manner. It's just that, to me at least, it feels like an unwanted pet left chained up in the yard. The animal inspectors (mods) check to see it's not being mistreated, and occasionally someone walking by will throw some food over the fence for it (donations). Beyond that, given previous observations, I don't see anything changing .

Sorry, but I can't edit my previous post. Where I said "3 months later" it should have read "15 months later."

I suspect it's not profitable, best case scenario the donations are enough to keep the site up without losing money. To me, the situation is that the owner's been dealing with GT for too long and it's no longer his cherished baby. This being his life's work, he's not letting anyone step in, even if he's not around as often.
