When I choose a letter to find a band, the text (on my phone) is so large that the artist is no longer visible. It was never this way before. Will this be fixed so PA browsing will be phone friendly?

Have you tried "desktop mode"?

I’m on an iPhone using Safari. When I saw this topic I first thought to then try it in desktop mode and had the same issue. Also tried it in more than one browser in mobile an desktop mode, not mattering. On my laptop it’s fine.

I'm using Firefox on Win 10 Desktop and I've noticed that the album art on release pages takes up more space than before

Desktop mode works, but when searching for a band all the album covers appear tiny on a phone.

Can someone tell me why this was changed?

^It's better now, but still not as phone friendly as it was. Even when I flip my phone screen it's still a bit wonky.

I appreciate the help.

My phone is a Samsung S22. When the phone is in the vertical position the tabs are much larger than before. If I choose a sub-genre and scroll down to top albums I see them but 1/3 of the screen has a purple background, the 2/3 of the background is white. It was not this way last week. If I rotate my phone 90º all is fine but the album covers are much larger than before. Similar issues if I search for band beginning with an letter. The text size seems much larger than before and if my phone is in a vertical position some of the screen background is purple but if I rotate 90º it's fine but text is much larger than before.

On  my PIXEL 5 , PIXEL 7 , PIXEL 9 Pro and Chrome Mobile Emulator I don't have thoses issues except that the top TABS are bigger to help with big fingers clicks ;-)

Can someone else confirm this please ? I am willing to fix them but I need a 2nd confirmation.

I'm on an S22 and it looks OK to me, I'm using Internet Explorer, I checked Chrome and also don't see an issue.

CHROME on mobile should be OK
Most people use this browser according to the analytics data.
