What is the main reason you don't come to this website more often?

[SFR10]

having to zoom in and out and move the screen with the text to read is just as painful as nails on chalkboard.

In regards to the reading part, I'd recommend doing what @acroman08 suggested ^{[landscape view]} and for those that are interested in a better experience for posting stuff, I'd recommend combining the landscape view with a portable Bluetooth keyboard while using the "quick reply" feature!

• Quick reply feature
  
  • Profile > Look and Layout Preferences > Use quick reply on topic display > show, on by default > Change profile

Alternatively, you can try the following things as well:

• • Wap2 ^[responsive]: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?;wap2
    
    • The remaining versions are:
      
      • Wap ^{[it doesn't come with the ability to create posts but it's responsive]}.
      • Imode ^{[it comes with the ability to create posts but it's not responsive]}.

  
  Note: Every single one of these versions has its own limitations and depending on how each post is formatted ^{[e.g. those with tables]}, viewing it using any of the above versions might be a nightmare.

This forum is like a daily dose of medicine to me for it is the place I hang out with crypto friends share knowledge and also learn something new. The on the main reason I will not come more often will be if I'm busy with traditional necessary tasks or had a hectic day at work/home.
About the mobile, I don't see anything harmful in using this form on mobile.

I can access the forum quite easily using a variety of devices, and I bought a bluetooth keyboard to use with my smart phone. I grown away from the forum because of the difficulty in having sensible political and health discussions. Some many people here seem to have been suckered into the belief that you can cure endemic diseases with vaccines after people have been infected, and also that the government is actually in control of the country. Maybe it is just that the indoctrinated are the most active.

My time spent here on this forum is a time well-spent. I do not regret reading on topics that revolve around current events in which I take for granted. Rather than reading news on Reddit, I would prefer to engage into a conversation here in this forum.

In addition, even with the implementation of the merit system (in which most newbies complained about), this brought about change that slightly filtered out spams which preserves the overall quality of the forum. I just do hope that they provide more features (e.g. mobile view, dark mode, etc.) in the future (though this has to do with convenience).

I think it did more then slightly filtering out spam. It has removed most of the problems in the main boards imo. Dark mode can be done on your side if you need to do it I do not think that this needs to be a high priority because it is easy enough for us members to change it. I would like a mobile theme that works with the Tor client on android but I think that is wishful thinking. I do not think the new forum software offers support for mobiles and even if we do have it upgraded soon it looks like we will not have a good experience on mobiles any time soon.

I have not used this forum on my mobile phone but I have used other simple machine forums on my phone and it has always been awkward with a touch screen. I do not think I could justify buying a physical keyboard for my phone just to use this forum. How good does the physical keyboard work with it? How do you store it with your phone or do you only use it at home?

Lack of community projects and a negative overall atmosphere would be my 2 main reasons. If it wasn’t for nostalgia and signature payments, I’m not sure we’d see the activity levels we do from anyone who has reached beyond a member account. The vaporware forum, vaporware anniversary giveaway, vaporware badges… The trend does not look promising… The question is, will it ever change or are we going to continue to spiral towards the drain…

It's a bit difficult to find stuff.

But I like the forum because it reminds me of the forums I used to go back in the days. I wish I came to this one instead in those times

[Pmalek]

I used to visit the forum on my smartphone, by the way.  I didn't find the resizing and scrolling to be all that bad.  It was the typing with my fingers or stylus that drove me mad.

Imagine wanting to reply to multiple posts and having to find and insert those quotes. It gets even harder when you want to cut out the parts of the posts you are not replying to and you find yourself clicking multiple times to place the cursor in the right spot. It's not a big problem if you are just making new posts without quoting and directly replying to someone.

What is the main reason you don't come to this website more often?

First of all, your reason is pretty stupid (no offense), because people come to the forum to exchange opinions, to learn something new, or to share knowledge with others. In addition, most of us visit the forum from our desktops, and those who take care of their security never log in with their main accounts via smartphones.


If by any chance you read this post, you should have learned a long time ago that these topics are not suitable for the Bitcoin discussion board where you primarily posted it (as well as some others).

[Sifat Redwan]

Because I cant find the threads I'm looking for. I learnt the basic of cryptocurrencies but cant go deeper as I cant find any guideline from here. There are resources here but I cant find them for my next step.

[Rikafip]

I've been less active for the last couple of months, but not because I got bored of bitcointalk of because something is bothering me, but because something much more simple; I got shit load of extra work and can't afford so much leisure which I spent here time (as I could before) . Hopefully that changes soon.

[krishnaverma]

I got occupied with my work and thus could not visit the forum that often. Now that I have created some passive sources of income, I again have free time to browse ans contribute to the forum. Hope the second innings will be brighter than the first one.

AFAIK, this is somewhat the best place you can get knowledge about any aspect of cryptocurrency, it's either you're not searching properly for the relevant threads that you need or you're just not active enough on the forum. Use the search option to easily locate the threads you're looking for, and I'm pretty sure you'll find them, and even if you don't, then create your own threads and ask questions about what you need.

The demands of work in rl are the most likely reason for not having a lot of time to interact with the many users on the forum. In the last few months I haven't been posting much with my phone because the internet has become unstable "not because of its small display" and I do it more often with my new laptop. Yes, I've only had a new laptop for a few months. 

I usually read more responses to posts I make on my phone and will only reply after I turn on the laptop.

As LFC_bitcoin said, for 1 person we will have one opinion and for sure they have 1 ass hole. Lol 

Opinions are like arse holes though, we all have one

[GeorgeJohn]

This your question is answerable individually because many people have different things that consumed their time except this platform, on like me it's very clear from me that the community of bitcointalk always take up my time because both morning and night I'm here, it's not that am posting (no) but i do devote time to go through the communication of the forum one after the other due to i love being around the forum, and i have noticed my system have acclimatized with community in which any minute I don't come here it affect me seriously.

[libert19]

Bruh if you visit often you will get used to it, you won't even realize you are doing zoom in-outs.

[UserU]

I'd recommend combining the landscape view with a portable Bluetooth keyboard while using the "quick reply" feature!

Imagine using a BT keyboard while you're mobile

[donatien]

I like this forum a lot. I agree with the poster bitcointalk should have a mobile version which will make it easily accessible to ppl like me who don't have desktop or laptop.

[Rockstarguy]

For me, it's the lack of mobile view. I like this place, more than any website I use (and I use a lot) but having to zoom in and out and move the screen with the text to read is just as painful as nails on chalkboard. I'm very surprised that this website doesn't have mobile view. Its the only website I know that doesn't. Considering how big it is...it's crazy.

My mobile maybe too small to login into the forum but I don't really see that as a challenge , I try to be always active because I learn new things about in the forum every day

I think there would be members here that would stay without signature campaigns because some veteran accounts do not participate in them but I do agree that this forum needs change. I do not think removing signature campaigns is the answer but I think there needs to be more regulation especially in the altcoin boards because they are full of spam. I think there is already a lack of community projects I have never been involved in a community project and I do not think I have seen one. I guess the charity fundraising some members do counts as community projects?
