 | Hi Davey, Unfortunately, the Markdown editor that we use (and which our toolbar is attached to) is not mobile-friendly. Therefore, we are unable to include our toolbar on mobile devices because it simply would be extremely, extremely buggy and not work correctly. Keeping the editor clutter-free on mobile is also … |

 | Unfortunately, you already have the absolute best tool out there, Dreamweaver - I highly suggest that you take some time to learn it. It's not that hard at all really - and you're not going to find anything you like much simpler. (Short of using Microsoft Word and choosing the … |

 | I have an MSI gaming laptop and I'm very happy with it. I'm not a gamer, but I needed a laptop I could use as a desktop replacement with a good video card and large monitor, and that criteria limited me to gaming laptops. For desktops, I've always gone Dell, … |

| | For what it's worth, I read your post :) |
| | Uber or Lyft? ;) just curious. It's been my experience that this is the Windows or Mac question of yesteryear. |
| | Re: Student laptop I disagree with all you guys about not splurging for the SSD. I think that when you're in college, your laptop is constantly being thrown in and out of your backback, and taken with you to classes, to the library, to the dorms, to the cafe, back to classes, etc. … |
 | Huh?? I'm incredibly confused what you're asking for. |

| | As I've been saying, especially recently, google hates forums, and we're not going to survive unless we do one of two things: 1. Be a community of people regularly engaging in discussions with each other, and NOT a support site that relies on a constant stream of question askers. In … |
 | So are you saying you want to create a bot that will spam a forum with a whole bunch of random users with random numbers tacked onto their username and fake email addresses? Sounds like loads of fun!! Where do I sign up? :-P |
| | In light of the discussions going on lately about being a discussion community, what do you think about rewording the Read / Answer / Ask in the navigation menu to Read / Answer / Discuss? Would newbies be more likely to click on Ask versus Discuss? But Discuss makes more …  |
