You complain that you can't bang out a question immediately when it pops into your head, even if you're in the middle of doing something else with lots of distractions around. That's a good thing.

We want questions that are well thought out, to the point, and well written. Doing that right takes a little time, not the least of which is actually stopping to think before blurting out a question. If you can't be bothered to log in, then you certainly won't be bothered to think about your question, do a little research, and write it up clearly and using good English.

In that way we should probably remove the "ask question" button on mobile altogether and disable the submit button on the question ask page for at least 30 minutes (because that's the time it takes at least to think about a question, do research and write it all up). Or not. :)

A comprehensive discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of mobile usage of Q&A platforms is probably beyond this feature request. But it would be interesting.

You are wrong about the issue of logging in, I don't log in to website account from phone often from information security considerations but mostly because I don't want to recall "long" passwords for non basic software (operating system, SSH private key, and alike).

I also avoid installing native apps to save battery.

deleted user "I don't want to recall "long" passwords" If security is not important and you don't want to recall long passwords, why don't you use https://meta.codidact.com/users/mobile-login? It doesn't even require a password (I guess, not having tested this) and then mark the checkbox saying that you want to stay signed in. My guess is that most people simply stay signed in and do not have any problem posting from mobile then. They only need to sign in once.

Trilarion‭ thanks, I avoid caching in my smartphone (I use a cachless DuckDuckGo as primary browser).

deleted user Well then you make some things more difficult for you. But this doesn't have to be the case for others. An implementation would then primarily be a benefit for similar people. Maybe not the highest priority.
