PC is much easier. but, if you are on the go, mobile is the best option. I use PC.

I'm actually surprised at the results. I never use my phone but most commonly use my iPad. I have my photo libraries and editing tools on all my devices (iOS & PC) and have them backed up to the cloud as well as an external hard drive. I can edit and post from any of the devices but it's most intuitive from the iPad.

iPads run the desktop version of the site, so I’m in a bit of a gray area.

1 Formica fusca group- 0 workers

1 Tetramorium immigrans colony-20 workers

It still is a mobile device.

I'm usually on a laptop. But I do sometimes post photos from my cell phone, like when I'm stuck waiting for someone for an hour with nothing else to do. The only way I've found to do it is to go to the full version of the forum GUI, instead of the mobile GUI. From there it's a matter of zooming in and knowing where all the buttons are. Sort of annoying but doable.

I'd say nobody here is PC and everyone but maybe FSTP is mobile.

How come PC has 65 % of the votes then?

 


I highly doubt 65% of Formicultists are politically correct, or that FSTP has grown actual frog legs since the last time we talked.

 

Being PC is really overrated.

I don't know where I'd even start if I wanted to post a picture from mobile. Pictures are all the way over there in the DSLR, which I need to hook up to PC anyway.

That being said, it's 7 AM, I'm still in bed and typing this on phone after checking the news and weather. It's a chore to poke the tiny screen just right to make letters appear in sensible patterns.

I mostly use my phone. I only use my laptop when I am editing my journals and posting pictures.
