The Second Life Marketplace homepage is still not mobile-friendly in 2026.

On mobile devices, users are forced to scroll horizontally just to view the homepage content. This creates a poor user experience and makes browsing unnecessarily difficult.

What needs to be fixed:

The core issue appears to be improper viewport handling and responsive layout setup.

Specifically:

Add a proper viewport meta tag:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

Ensure all layout containers scale within 100% width of the viewport

Remove fixed-width elements that overflow on smaller screens

Use responsive CSS (flexbox or grid) to adapt content dynamically

Prevent horizontal overflow (overflow-x: hidden where appropriate)

Optimize images and banners to scale correctly on mobile

Why this matters:

A large portion of users browse on mobile

Horizontal scrolling is outdated and frustrating

This directly impacts engagement and conversion on the Marketplace

It reflects poorly on the platform’s overall modernity

This is a basic web standard in 2026 and should be prioritized.
