11. I must admit this is a really strange one

I can't reproduce it, and I took a look at the post and there's nothing unusual about it. I don't think that including the image was the problem (especially since it's still happening after you removed it).

What I have noticed from the screenshot is that the top part of the screen is displaying the mobile header as it should, but the lower part looks like it's trying to display the desktop layout, with the large blue button and the big avatar image. Those elements should not display like that on a phone. The avatar image should be way smaller.

Unfortunately I'm a bit baffled because off the top of my head I'm not sure why the page is showing partly the mobile version and partly the non-mobile version. You should get either one or the other, but not a mix of both.

Since this can't be widely reproduced I suspect that it's a quirk which may have something to do with your particular device (although I see you tried clearing your cache and that didn't help). If it is only happening on this thread, perhaps the best bet is to keep monitoring and see if it happens again in other threads. If so, please let me know, because then we can compare the threads and see if they have anything in common.
