Feedback: the webforum software does not recognize and does not serve a mobile-friendly theme for mobile smartphones (Android/iOS/Windows Phone). This makes it uneasy to read and participate in the forum on a small screen form factor.

I’ve been using the forum with its default theme from my Nokia 5800XM (Symbian) with Opera Mobile for years, it works absolutely fine.

P.S. AFAICT, Opera Mobile for Symbian has a bug which causes some (not all) websites using tables get displayed wrong. For some reason this forum has recently become subject to the bug, but it is still quite usable.

For mobile, this line should be added to the head of the page:

Code:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

But then, the css should be modified to suit responsive design.
Which means:
probably all table layout should be switched to a block display, like: div, article, section...
And some system of a responsive grid used too.
