I have this problem as well. The usual workaround of long 
pressing on the link to see the full URL is useless because the 
URL do not show the topic title in them..

An additional problem I noticed is as follows: there is a thread 
with 4 pages, of which I previously seen page n.1. When I click 
on the (X new), the link brings me to page n.2. Then I skip page 
n.3 and click to page n.4, maybe because I read page n.3 already 
on a device where I'm not logged in.
The next time I'll see the (X new) link, if I click it I'll be 
sent to page n.3 instead of page n.4.
This is makes the feature useless in long threads, where maybe 
you are reading at page 10 but the (X new) brings you to 10 pages 
behind and you need to click it 10 times to bring it in synch.

But nonetheless, thanks for the website. It's not optimized too 
much for mobiles but having it so lightweight is really nice!

For mobile I would prefer it to use the whole width for the title 
and convert the other two columns into "subtitle text" below.

+1, that'd avoid the other columns taking up too much empty 
vertical space vs. if the title column was wrapped. Mockup:

I agree. This forum and the wiki could also use a better font as 
well. It looks ugly at the moment.
