Why does Lainchan.jp only span across part of my browser? I verified this occurs for me across multiple browsers (Pale Meme and Firefox Nightly).

It's part of the CSS so probably intentional. I think it's better than the unreadably long lines you see on other imageboards sometimes.

This is a feature not a bug. Excessive line length dramatically reduces readability and increases bounce rates. I don't see how anyone could prefer to read 10pt type sprawled across 1920 pixels. You don't see any other websites use this format because it's an absolute UX disaster. The fact that this is the historical format of image boards is not an excuse to continue repeating the mistake. Also bear in mind the average browser dimensions were much, much smaller when image boards were first developed. If they were being developed for the first time today, I can assure you they'd have more appropriate max-widths set. Once the default stylesheet has been re-written and we begin making alternate styles available, I can make one that uses the historical 100% pagewidth for you if you would prefer it. https://baymard.com/blog/line-length-readability

Please make the static reply-boxes a few pixels thinner so that the completely unnecessary sideways-scroll bar doesn't pop up in the default Tor Browser.

It's a small but very specific (to this imageboard) problem that I otherwise only come across while browsing pages with either lots of very detailed grids of statistics, or with panorama pictures.

Could you please post a screenshot reproducing the problem so I can approximate how much of a change is necessary? We are working on responsive stylesheets, but I can still make a small change for you right now.
