This is certainly not an urgent request, but as I've been using mobile devices more I often notice that some of the best posts on the discussions also tend to be very long and on mobile browsers appear even longer. Often by the end of a particularly good post the prospect of scrolling back up just to like the post seems like a chore. I wonder if having the like, apple, quote/reply options at the bottom of posts might  drive a bit more engagement with those functions?
Now that I've outed myself as an improbably lazy millennial, discuss

Have you happened across any of my posts, trying to use the mobile? Three long swipes, easy. And that's if I'm only mildly enthusiastic.

I don't really feel that it would be necessary, but at the same time, there are sometimes an awful lot of long posts with good information. I don't think it would be bad if there were perhaps, at least, a button at the bottom of each post that returned you to the top of the post.

But I don't think that I am that lazy. Not quite yet, at any rate.

Thank you for the feedback.  It's especially useful for 'millennial' mobile users.  

We're in the process of modifying the look at feel of the site.  Well, at the pre-design stage.  So it's going to be a while, but we value the input.  
 
There will be plenty of time to discuss your objections when and if you return. The cargo is this tiny ad:
