Skinner mode helps, but still a lot of clutter and clicking.

I have a decrepit iPhone 6. I haven't risked it yet to see if it will even work at all. I'd like to get more comfortable with DU4 on my desktop unit before I try figuring it out.

allowing us to choose one setting for phones/tablets and another for pcs/laptops based on media query settings.

If we could do that, I’d do “night” for my phone and “Skinner” for my laptop.

Oh, I’d also add a “condensed” mode. I prefer more info on a page and less white space most of the time.

I first logged onto the internet in the late 'seventies.

The 1998 internet was awesome.

The old one was fine too, but this is definitely more modern and mobile friendly.

I assume we are talking about using it in mobile mode on the phone (not desktop mode).

That has been cleared up and for me the site is way more usable and better looking now. Vast difference between Thursday moring and Thursday evening.
