[NSC] How do YOU use NSC?

[Weststander]

Yep. A smug adblocker tipped me over the edge.

Edge on iPhone - who knew that was a thing?

I'm not familiar with it, but I'll try and take a look later on my phone, but there must be something in the Edge settings and/or another browser plugin that is blocking javascript.

You took your time.

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Mostly on a tablet but now and again on a PC if at work

 

[Peteinblack]

Computer when I'm at home or in the office; phone when I'm commuting on train.

 

[pearl]

Probably 95% iPad, 5% iPhone. I have a laptop, but it takes so long to get going, I never use it now.

My laptop took so long to wake up it used up the battery!

 

[Official Old Man]

It's my home screen on the laptop which is in use most days for work.
Phone when out and about waiting for the wife to finish shopping or at the Amex.

 

[Ludensian Gull]

100% Tablet for me

 

[Knocky's Nose]

Always from my 'big computer' in my home office. It's where I relax and NSC is my (mostly) happy place!

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Computer.

I don't have a tv so watch netflix, youtube, football etc on my computer. I'll always have NSC open while my computer is on, even if I don't actually read it that often.

 

[Boroseagull]

100% laptop for me.

 

[SUIYHP]

Pretty much entirely on my phone.

As an aside and shamelessly taking advantage of this being a more technical thread about NSC on different platforms, @Bozza I don’t have any options to change my text’s appearance (make things in italics/bold), add links or images etc. all the options appear greyed out at the top of the reply box. Not sure if others have had that problem or it this is an ongoing thing for specific browsers? (Im on Safari)

@SUIYHP

Make sure that in your post reply box, you have not got the square brackets clicked on - if you have it will appear as [ ] (blue) in the menu box where your text options should be and all your formatting uploading/link options will be greyed out. If you click on the square brackets, all your formatting options will magically reappear if that was the issue.

[jcdenton08]

100% phone, but would gladly pay a yearly subscription for no ads.

 

[Triggaaar]

Chromebook/laptop/pc with a little bit of phone (so I just put 100% computer)

 

[Fromthesouth]

Always tablet at home, phone when on holiday

 

[zefarelly]

THere's no option for telex, fax or post.

Those lads that worked at Amex were a way ahead of most of us pencil clickers

Amazing! That worked a treat thanks!

Mainly use NSC on PC at work and home but when out and about use mobile. As I've said before I'd willing subscribe to an annual fee to be add free so not happy with the latest changes. The pop up ads on mobile are very annoying but worse is being forced to block use of adblocker and was amazed by how much shite there is at bottom of page!!
@Bozza Please Please please allow adblocker until you can offer NSC ad free for a fee?

 

[Robinjakarta]

Almost 100% laptop because of a good size screen. Very occasionally iPhone if laptop not available. I started using Adblock years ago as ads were spoiling the experience and don't like being told I can't use it for sites (but do understand reasons for this). Usually when told this, that's the end of the site for me. I think NSC is the only site that I haven't got rid of because of that because it's my favourite site! Immediate impressions are that the adverts are not too intrusive, and like nearly all all adverts, I ignore them. I'd definitely consider paying for an advert free option if that should ever become available.

 

[Easy 10]

Chromebook at home, PC at work (or also when WFH).

I never used to bother with NSC on my phone, as I found Tapatalk to be absolute GUBBINS. However, since switching to this new messageboard, I find the NSC app on my phone to be more than acceptable. So I do find myself quite often having a little peruse on my phone these days when I'm out and about on a bus or train or whatnot.

I tell you what I find strange to experience, and that's people I don't know start talking about NSC when I'm within earshot.

I'm reminded of this because it happened on the train on the way to the game last Saturday. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, the train started moving and I couldn't hear them any longer.
