    How much data usage should loading a page on here use? Just recently this site seems to be eating my allowance. I have just browsed about 4 pages and used 2MB. Is that about right? Never used to, just jumped up around 10th July.

    500kb a page sounds very heavy to me

    Are you using mobile or full version?

    Either way if you're looking at posts with pictures it will be a larger use of data.

    You can reset your data counter on your phone and watch how much it uses closely. I have never found the site to use a lot of data at all

    Cheers hicksy. It is mobile skin I am on but through browser not an app. I will do as you suggest and monitor it properly for a while.

    Soz about the thread title, just a bit of fun.
