haha nice! i was thinking about giving this a shot too - was thinking of putting the button in the sidebar or floating it. well done

Button’s hard to reach with (right) thumb on mobile

It would be better centered.

[Lilly (Lillian)]

to centre on mobile:

@use "lib/viewport";

@include viewport.until(md) {

  .load-more-btn.btn.btn-primary {
    display: block;
    margin: 0 auto;   
  }
}

edit: pull request for Richard if he is so inclined

Centre the mobile button horizontally (#1)

This is very nice - thanks! I do have a bug report which is clearly manifest at my Discourse site:

Discourse at Mark's Math

This site is quite small and most of the content is hidden until one signs on as a student. Thus, the landing page has only five posts. Nonetheless, the “Load more” button appears, which it shouldn’t. If you press it, it goes away. If you scroll up a bit and then back down, then it’s back again.

It works great, though, on the topic pages. You’ll have to trust me on that since they’re hidden from public view.

Of course, I understand that you did this in your spare time but I thought I should let you know. And thanks again!
