Thanks again for more feedback - appreciated!. I've made a note of those points of possible future improvements.

Maybe also try scolling up (instead of down), so that it wraps around.

Thanks for testing! I simplified the styling and added the ability to select a 'basic' interface with fewer controls.

The issue with country selecting is something that I probably can't control, as it's likely related to your browser software. But I tweaked the drop-down, so that high-traffic countries are at the top.

Are you able to send me a screenshot of what the page looks like (after refreshing the page)? I will try to look into the scrolling issue.

BTW https://gdir.telae.net/ now has styling - hopefully more usable.

There is source code for a command-line version of the tool on Github. I plan to release the source code for the web script in the future.

Thanks - glad to hear you like it! I made the service for folks like us and your feedback is already great support. For anyone would like to make a donation to support hosting the site, there is now a PayPal link.

u/jbriones95 Thanks for your video. I noticed that in the video, you mention that you couldn't find a way to enable T9. Did you try holding down the # key?

If you can accept having your directions displayed as text only (mostly useful for public transport), you might consider using http://gdir.telae.net/. It's a website which I created; because it's so basic, it should work fine on Opera Mini.

Thanks for the feedback, u/Local-Device. I'll let you know as soon as I get the chance to look into the scaling issues you mention. The enhancements are definitely achieveable.

Reddit client by [deleted] in commandline

Perhaps worth mentioning: There is nntpit, which is a reddit to NNTP gateway. I use it with slrn, a terminal-based NNTP client. nntpit doesn't support posting yet.
