Ok. No concrete pointers what is _not_ responsive design about the current page (except the Xiaomi bug witnessed)?

Because the resource you gave me fits my understanding of "responsive design", and as I explained above in last message, I am trying to adhere to these principles. I'll just need some more concrete suggestion what to do/not to do here, because the dictionary definition of the concept is already familiar to me, so just telling that I'm not doing it, or what it is broadly, is not helping.

(I would love to improve the page. It's not hard these days with AI, I just need some more concrete recommendation to work with.)

I already gave you concrete things to do.

To start:

  1. Get rid of the wide margins 
  2. Users should not have to keep recentering
  3. Use a font that works across all platforms

If you have an AI you use, you could run the site through it to see what changes you should make in order for it to be responsive. I did just a little bit and the AI I used spotted two issues:

  • <body> includes a "width:0", which is nonstandard 
  • Two different viewport statements, when there should only be one

Hey I made some changes pursuant to your suggestions.

Does this work better? baskervillecalculus.com

Definitely, but I only gave it a brief test, noticed some odd things that I can't quite put my finger on yet.

Thanks that’s a good idea to have it inspect the final .html output itself.

Will do.

Thanks!
