Easier to Mylot on PC rather than on Ipad

Before my internet connection at home, I used to interact on MyLot on my Ipad. I find it quite cumbersome, as I have fat fingers due to arthritis. Ohh, it's such a breeze now to do it on my personal computer. My PC is old but still reliable. It does what I wanted it to do. Now that I can do it on my PC, I can interact better as I get discouraged writing on my Ipad. I just read there now and play some games if I'm bored and have nothing else to do. Do you use MyLot on your PC/laptop or on your smartphones or Ipad? My photo was taken of one of the displays at the National Gallery of Australia (NGA)

I use my tablet to mylot most times. I don't mind it too much. It took some getting used to though.

Yes, I got used to it like you did, but I use my computer more for comfort.

I generally post on my iPad. I have a Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad, however. I type 80 WPM, and the on-screen keyboard wasn't made for anyone who can type beyond 80 words per hour.

Wow, that's speed typing. Unless you meant 80 words per hour? per month? just kidding. I wish I had bluetooth on my computer.

I use my iPad for most of my my logging. Today if used my smartphone for a while but it is hard for me to respond with those tiny keys.

Yes, the tiny keys aren't conducive for writing. I do use them together at times lol.

You must have a really smart phone to be comfortable keying in posts.

My computer has no internet connection. I only mylot from my smartphone. I already spent a lot for data every month, I can't afford for broadband connection. It is easier to use a pc, but for the time being I have to settle with this.

It is cheaper for us to connect on the internet as the portable broadband costs more with very limited data. Yes, I guess we adjust to what's available.

I find it easier to myLot on my PC but my chair bothers my back if I sit there too long. Its more comfortable sitting in my recliner but my tablet is slow going for the same reasons as you...fat arthritic fingers

Ohhh, welcome to the club of fat arthritic fingers...we just have to adjust to what is comfortable to all of us.

My fingers are naturally a bit fat and I think I would find it hard to use a smaller keyboard.

I only use my iPhone here and there because I move from one place to another. But yes, I'd still prefer desktop computers if only DSL is available in the "mountain".

I share your dislike of using a tablet when there is a need to type. Besides the difficulties of typing the correct letters, I prefer a bigger screen so I don't have to squint.

True. I wear eyeglasses too but not for short distance reading. It's hard to be senior ;)

Doing this and most other things from a phone of IPad is not as easy as using the laptop we like. Everyone is different. Some think justing using the phone is great.
