O my iPhone SE 2016 I can’t log out from the freecodecamp forum ([forum.freecodecamp.org](http://forum.freecodecamp.org)) in portrait mode, and can’t get to most menu items on landscape mode. I have tried other discourse forums, like this one and [community.postcrossing.com](http://community.postcrossing.com), the issue is less visible, the menu is more compact and there are no issue in portrait mode, but in landscape mode some menu items are also inaccessible, so we came to the conclusion that it is a widespread discourse issue. I have tried swiping, to see if the other menu items appear, and they don’t.

I had opened this github issue on the freecodecamp repository first: [using the forum on mobile many dropdown menu items are inaccessible · Issue #40861 · freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp · GitHub](https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/issues/40861)

Added a fix for this the other week that switches the menu to 2-columns for short browsers… it should work a bit better, though I can still probably make some slight improvements for _ultra-short_ viewports.
