When the browser width is less than 1489px, the forum navbar elements on the right side (Profile button, notifications, messages, and Log Out button) disappear. Looking at the browser dev tools, the #navigation element has overflow set to hidden. Perhaps a better solution could be found. :)

This is an issue for anyone who uses a smaller second monitor or only wants the browser on a part of the main screen.

It happens to me too. It is curious that this forum is responsive on mobile devices but not on smaller screens.

Also, is it just me, or does this site take ages to go to another page for everyone? What is it doing??!?

Considering you coded this forum when you were pretty young and you've been building off of that, it's improved a lot. Keep at it.

Quick userstyle workaround if anyone needs it:
#navigation {
overflow: visible;
}

Slightly ugly in that the elements will likely be under the navbar, but it works. I spent some time trying to hack together a userscript to make a button reveal a dropdown for the controls on smaller sizes, but it didn't go well. xD
