Meta Question

ibstubro's avatar

Is this a stupid question? Did you know you can access and use the Fluther mobile app from your desktop?

Asked by ibstubro (18804points) June 16th, 2016

IMO the mobile app is a POC, but better than sitting around jonesin’ for a Fluther fix while the desktop doesn’t work.

Wow – I had no idea. Thank you so much. With the regular access out of commission this is welcome news.

It’s good but I’m wondering if the issue is with servers then how this one ( mobile site) is working? I am having no issues accessing it through mobile.

We certainly don’t want you to miss any more of your party than necessary, @YARNLADY!

I knew about it a long time ago and I’m quite surprised at how many people that don’t know about it. Thanks for spreading the knowledge though.

It’s been a Fluther-saver for a few of us, Mimishu1995.

I’m actually getting to like it.

@imrainmaker :: My hunch is that the problem is CPU bound. The Mobile site loads a lot less things. It is easier to computationally put together so it can make it through.

I did know this :-P

@stinley – no way…)

imrainmaker's avatar

I don’t know if many people know this as traffic / responses seems less recently. Is the desktop version working now?

johnpowell's avatar

Slow but working. I haven’t seen a error yet today.

ibstubro's avatar

I can’t believe I didn’t get a single “Yes and yes”.

Yes no errors but still can’t ask a question from desktop. Yes I know we can use mobile version but maybe I don’t want to use the mobile version. :P

Mimishu1995's avatar

Right now the mobile version is the only way I can access this site. The desktop version just refuses to load.

I thought it would be better if we had one “go to” question in meta and drop the several other versions, if possible.
Then everyone will know as much as anyone without having to post/read several question.
