Mobile: Messages need more space #5028

While using Couchers in my mobile Browser i realized it's almost impossible to read messages as there is lots of space occupied by other elements and very little space left for the chat view itself. This is on an Samsung S9, so not the largest phone.

I think we could leave out some elements or make them more compact to make the site more mobile-friendly.

About date format: eee, dd mmm - eee, dd mmm yyyy example: mon, 16 ago - thu 19 ago 2024

About location format: If its to long the trim it?, like Madrid, Madrid, Spa...

I think a quick improvement would be as well to make the cancel button part of the scrollable chat view. Currently, it always takes space up. Alternatively, it could be moved somewhere else.

And i think while the above changes might make sense as well, it comes down to the chat view being a very small fixed size (on these screens). If this size would be increased, everything else could be scrolled away and would be manageable

This is somewhat related to #4995
