First, let me say thanks for stopping by on a daily basis, your continued patronage of this website in the fight against climate fanaticism is always appreciated. I’m considering some changes to WUWT’s formatting in the upcoming months to help keep important stories online longer, but before I do that I need the readers to answer a question that I can’t answer myself by looking at visitor data.
The question is: how do you see this website in your browser?
There’s three possible ways; the gallery format and the linear format, or mobile. Depending on your screen resolution and browser window size, one of these three presentations is possible.
GALLERY VIEW:
(larger screens and full width browser windows)
LINEAR VIEW:
(smaller screens and smaller browser windows)
MOBILE VIEW:
(On phones)
Please tell me which view you normally see:
Your answer will help me make WUWT better.
Thanks, Anthony
Linear. SeaMonkey 2.39 on WinXP. Browser window 1150×825. Any wider tends to make text blocks too wide to read comfortably.
Gallery in Opera, Brave & Firefox.
Linear, Chrome, 1024 by 768 pixels.
Firefox gives me gallery which I’m happy with.
Galery then linear after first few, android, chrome 10″ screen tablet.
Anthony ==> I do all my writing, editing, research and serious web reading on my Lenovo laptop in Gallery View.e FIREFOX and CHROME (somewhat interchangeably, though prefer Firefox), I often use Firefox’s “Reader View” which shows the text in a vertical column more like a single-column newspaper.
I vary rarely use one of my way-too-many tablets to look at web pages, and never a mobile phone.
I read via direct article links via your RSS feed, so I never actually view the front page.
I like the look of the gallery view though.

gallery in Opera
I prefer Gallery on Safari. Have experimented with other views but always go back to Gallery.
Thanks for your time, effort, and sacrifice, it is much appreciated.
Firefox Quantum – Gallery
I too see the gallery view with Firefox for the lead article plus the next 4 just below. Then it goes to linear after a blank gap which I suppose is provided by a Firefox ad blocker.
Gallery on Firefox with my desk-top. I get linear with mobile. I prefer the wider view because it displays the comment indenting better.

Gallery view, Firefox, laptop.
Chose gallery for poll but when I clicked ‘view results’, nothing happens.
Browser View … in Firefox 60, with Windows 8.1, screen resolution 1920 x 1080
I meant … Gallery View … in Firefox 60, with Windows 8.1, screen resolution 1920 x 1080
Hmm. I use Safari, and what I get is not exactly like any of your options, but I would describe it as linear.

Today was the first day of a couple of years attendance I have visited the home page because I respond to the emails you send.
I’m running Windows 10 insider, with Opera as my preferred browser.
Today I see WUWT in GALLERY VIEW, as on most days.
From memory, my Samsung Galaxy 10 tablet is the same. I’m not sure about my iPhone 7 as I don’t usually use it to browse, but I can’t recall anything different on the occasions I have.
Hope this helps.
In Firefox, IE, and Edge I get Gallery initially for 5-6 articles then linear for the rest of the articles. This is in Windows 10.
Linear, on an iPad. Too lazy to fire up the PC again after a hard days work.
I use Chrome and have the Gallery view
Gallery using Waterfox on Windoze 10, large workstation screen. I don’t bother looking on anything else.
I occasionally have to turn on uBlock Origin, as there are still advertisers out there who either abuse the space or are incompetent.
Explorer/22″ = gallery
Gallery view, but on my monitor it covers a little bit more than a third of the screen width…. it’s hard to find a theme that adapts to a big monitor, most of them seem focused on the small screens.
I see the gallery view BUT there is about 11+ inches of WUWT with 3 inch, grey areas on each “margin”.
Desktop running Windows 7pro, Chrome browser.
(I preferred Firefox until their frequent updates kept disabling parts of the security suite I trust.)
PS I don’t have a laptop or a cell phone (let alone a “smart phone”.)
I get gallery view in Firefox and would not prefer any lesser alternative. I try not to look at these things in my cellphone.
