Tried to read a post on their forums and after the post loads, comes this lovely modal. The X to close the modal is quite continently positioned so it is under the top UI of the browser and thus cannot be closed. My respect for this site has just been lost.
For the type of site that it is, I'm willing to entertain the idea that it's a design mistake where they didn't expect certain smaller screen heights.
I could be wrong but I feel like this is one of those "don't assume malice when stupid suffices" situation, and "stupid" would be a big word
Can you tap that X when you scroll the screen a little? Because it feels like a single scroll down would get you that close button
