I'm sure the HFBoards braintrust is tackling the problem as we speak

What about words?
Words? On a discussion forum?
Too drastic? Too crazy an idea?Words? On a discussion forum?
I've switched to brave (at least on mobile) and its like I traveled back in time a couple years with how smoothly this site runs. And cuts way down on data consumptionIve been meaning to ask about this, but HF uses an insane amount of memory and Im using Chrome which should be able to easily handle. It is insanely slow to load initially and that is even with ads blocked.
Same. And I don't see any HFBOARDS Logo banner.The site looks OK on desktop to me, but it's back to the default view with wide margins on the sides and the "Toggle width" button now does nothing.

Not a sponsor, therefore your opinion on this topic is valuelessIf this board is getting squeezed simply for more ad space I will choke someone
Oh no, a threat! Just become a sponsor. That's the happy medium.Is there an ETA on the fix? Desktop is basically unreadable.
Hopefully, someone is working on it. Mobile GUI has these stupid ads constantly popping up. Ads won't matter, if there's no traffic anymore. There has to be a happy medium.

Gotta say, this latest development is giving me a violent shove towards getting one. $12/year is nothing compared to what our tech superiors want per month.Not a sponsor, therefore your opinion on this topic is valueless

I have been working on being more positive and turning crisis in to opportunity, aka a problem solver. This odd extra space to the left creates a previously unavailable opportunity and we should use the space wisely while we have it .
My immediate and initial ideas:
1) Pickleball court: I am often told that this is the fastest growing sport in America
2) Community garden: Everyone can have their own slice. I am sure most people will grow weed, but everyone gets to choose their own adventure.
3) A moat: It will protect the site to from hackers or invading hoards of barbarians
4) a fire pit: It will not only be a good community spot to congregate and make s'mores, but it will pacify the arsonists
The moat would be filled with attack capybaras1) I'd be surprised if there was a large crossover between hockey fans and pickleball players.
2) Due to the risk of growing illicit drugs, this idea will have to be vetoed. We don't need a raid to happen.
4) Flaming is specifically listed as a violation of the site rules, so a fire pit will have to be vetoed as well.
Thus, I vote for the moat. But the real question is will we populate the moat? And if so, do we populate with actual threats, like sharks or kraken, or do we go with the hilarious route of ducks or penguins?
