Reproduce:

- Look at the “New Topic” button
- Make your window small so it becomes mobile view
- See how the text stays there
- Refresh window
- See how the button changes and loses the text
- Make your window bigger again so it goes to desktop mode
- See how the button does not get the text back, it stays an icon only
- Refresh window
- See how the button gets back its text
