Math redered incorrectly on certain mobile devices #130

Math is rendered incorrectly on Samsung Galaxy S6 to the extent that it is very hard to read. This is possibly a MathJax bug.

The bug is reproducible by using device emulation in Chrome. The math is rendered correctly on Firefox.

If I understand correctly what happens in device emulation, the issue seems to be that whenever you are in portrait mode and there is not enough space to display things, the browser decides to shrink everything that is not inside <div id="main"></div>. But the mathematics inside this <div> is handled by MathJax, who seems to be oblivious to this fact, or maybe that is a separate (MathJax) issue.

In landscape things seem fine in device emulation. Can you check this on your actual smartphone?
