View submission: [reddit change] Mobile Website Architectural Revamp - Launch
One of the mweb devs here. This was a conscious decision to handle the slightly annoying quirk iOS imposes on us. If you click on a textarea or input that has a font size of less than 16px, iOS automatically zooms in on the input area but when you're done it never zooms out. This leaves you in the slightly unexpected state of being able to pan left and right. The other way to handle this was to disallow zooming across the app, which is a line we refused to cross.

Good to know! I didn't see anything verifying that it was changed. I'll just get used to it being different! :]
