Apologies, in advance, if this has already been discussed to death.
So, I know I don't contribute that often to this forum, but that is mostly because great, solid responses have been made by the time I get home and online. I am a dedicated lurker though. I work in a two-man shop with no computer so I rely on my phone to entertain me when I take a break. Because i spend the bulk of my day with ear protection on, I am largely "alone". This forum makes me feel like I'm participating, even peripherally, in a social conversation, which is good for the psyche. Unfortunately this forum is too small and awkward when viewed that way so I've found another forum that has an app. What I love about this forum is that everyone is nice and respectful. I'm sure there are a lot of diverging points of view here but, even in the "off topic" forum, I only see civility. The personalities on that "other" site cannot seem to have a single discussion, whether talking about a laguna bandsaw or lowe's, without reducing it to tirades on tyranny, religious fundamentalism, and flags.
Are there plans for a mobile site or app for SMC? If not, are there other ways to view this forum on a mobile device that makes it easier? Will it help if i give you money?
