Out of the Blue

I was annoyed at my phone this morning when the alarm didn't go off. This annoyance grew when I realized that the phone was refusing to power up, and is now a brick. There is no identifiable reason for this as it has not suffered any problems, trauma, or a recent OS upgrade, so this is apparently just one of those random things. This is an iPhone (I've already taken abuse for this, so lay off), and for some reason I ended up with third-party insurance, rather than AppleCare, so now I have to worry that getting it fixed or replaced will be a hassle. Fingers crossed that this won't be more of a headache than necessary.

Mr.Blue, could you please update the underlying html structure of your website to work better on mobile?
I'm not asking for changing of the interface or a new theme.
Rather for the site to use proper html tags for proper page elements. Because of that, right now too many page elements on this site are impossibly tiny to read/tap on and have incorrect page-reflows.
Thank you.

You could increase the default text size on your device. That helped me somewhat.
If I do that, then the currently normal size fonts will be HUGE and it will affect other websites for which I don't want to do that.
Blue should update his CSS to work better with mobiles.

Most mobile websites are responsive, so the effect wasn't so bad. You could always try it and set it back if it screws other sites up too badly.

There might be a way to set the font size per site, but a quick google search didn't bring anything up.
I'm not even talking about a responsive design. With responsive design it'll change the site's layout based on dimensions of the screen and other capabilities. I don't care for that.

This is what homepage looks like on my Note 4 https://i.imgur.com/cMEodZv.jpg On a monitor it looks ok, but on a smaller screen it's unreadable.
