Namely on a mobile phone you can’t search for items.
Not a real solution, but on mobile you can always choose to “Desktop Site” and get the same page as on a computer. At the price of a little scrolling and zooming

I’m still hard at work getting my Shaving Data System a bit more polished, and it’s getting close!
Baserow is the software that it’s built in, and there seems to be one or two bugs that I (we?) might have to live with. Namely on a mobile phone you can’t search for items. People who decide to put hundreds of soaps in might struggle with that. Works great on real computer, though. Haven’t tested yet on an iPad.
Anyway, as far as the shave goes – great! I think @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social is right, I might end up preferring the Moarteen. Today was almost “easy”, although I only did two passes on account of time constraints and not wanting to feel rushed. Still decent results, but maybe not quite good enough if I had to work, for example.

I tried that already (in Firefox, at least), and it didn’t solve the behavior. It gives the input box like it should, and the keyboard pops up as it should, but typing doesn’t do anything.

Weird, and a bummer

Yah very weird. I haven’t looked into if there’s an open issue or PR yet, but it’s the thing in Chrome, even in Desktop mode.

I’m really enjoying following your progress. As time goes by, it gets easier and easier. Then there’s a day you realize that your shave is almost as close as a DE shave is. Then, after fiddling with technique a while, you realize you can get a shave as close, or closer, than you can with a DE shave, and with less irritation. Then, (for me at least) after more shaves, comes the realization that a straight razor shave takes about the same time as a DE shave does. (But is much more satisfying imo 🤔)

I can definitely see it being more satisfying once it becomes second nature.
