I never said that. I specifically said that the forum is designed for desktop/tablets, not for mobile devices.

"Meanwhile, on the Android side of things, Bekar says that “it’s very hard and time consuming to develop full Android exploit chains.” He added that until Apple “re-improves the security of iOS components such as Safari and iMessage,” Android exploits are more valuable."
I frankly do not believe in that. Most of the things floating around the web about iOS hacking is fake news. The truth is that android does have much more exploits developed and vulnerabilities found than iOS does.
iOS is, since a few years ago, the most secure mobile operating system of the world. I would never trust my data in an android device, period.

Again, I said the forum is not designed for mobile devices. It's the responsibility of the front-end programmer to provide a mobile responsive design for his website, not the web browser. At work it's what I do: I am specialised in designing web sites for mobile devices as well as finding creative UI/UX solutions for an easier user experience. I always design first for mobile devices before going to a full blown desktop experience.
It's just that the Vogon's designer chose not to offer a mobile friendly forum version. But since you asked: in iOS, all third party browsers are forced to use the iOS Safari rendering engine - Webkit. You know that, right?

ALL.
Now, I must underline that I never criticized the forum or its designers, never said its not a website. I just said the forum is not designed primarily for mobile devices. Actually, it's a pretty good design for desktop browsing and (to some extent) tablets. But it's just my opinion.
