Resolved Is there an auto rotate setting for the forums?

[TD]

I have it off on my phone but the GWF app always auto rotates.

 

[Crystal]

Yeah I should have noted I have tried to fix on Android earlier today to no avail. Especially annoying because it also flips the orientation of other apps when I have them displaying over the top of the app.

Really?!? That's not good! We need to sort that out ASAP

Holy shit did you do something it's not flipping anymore?

Not really, because there are PLENTY of quirks I’ve experienced on the iOS version of this site.

Shh... I like my iPhone and this statement does not support my opinion.

I’m in the camp that thinks phones suck and they’re dumb, so…

Phones? Or iPhones?

They don't suck. Neither do Android to be fair. I personally don't like the full open source nature of Androids, and why I've been with Apple since the iPhone 6. But to each their own. We're in a day and age where most adults cannot live without their phones.

Phones in general. They’re just dumb. They make noise, then you look at it or answer it and there are people on the other end. Not something I’d recommend.

It's definitely enabled corporations to further exploit the workforce by enabling an "always on and always connected" mentality. Especially here in America.

It surprises people, especially in this kinda setting, but I’m not a fan of being constantly connected, social media, or anything down those lines. Siri is disabled on my phone, every windshield mounted GPS I’ve ever owned has been silenced, etc.

After doing repo for all those years, I’ve grown to dislike of that kinda stuff. Kinda like that AirTag nonsense we were hearing after they came out… I’ve used trackers a lot longer than they’ve been around and saw the writing on the wall before they even released.

My rotate issue seems to be magically fixed?

Thank you to whichever entity did this
