SUPPORTED BROWSERS
Bus Stop is designed for desktop platforms and was tested on recent versions of all major browsers.
Mobile platforms aren't officially supported, which means that submitted bugs that don't happen on the desktop most likely won't be fixed.
Luckily, Bus Stop works fine in Chromium-based mobile browsers. Mozilla browsers on mobile platforms have major problems with this board's layout, that currently aren't planned to be fixed.
PERSONAL DATA USAGE
Bus Stop's page doesn't send any info to the server, besides your posts data and captcha id and answer when it's enabled. Some of the features like customization options require to have cookies enabled, but only to use your browser's
local storage, without actually filling the cookies headers.
Our JavaScript code doesn't make any requests and isn't mandatory for the site's core functionality.
HTTP server's access logs are disabled. Bus Stop has a statistic system that counts unique posters and visitors by storing checksums of IP addresses in database. Internal logs contain IP addresses together with posts content in plain text for moderation purposes, such logs are stored on the server for 3 days, they aren't shared with anyone and Bus Stop's maintainer uses them very infrequently.
