Jonas, why is the bug marked "Fix Committed" if your branch hasn’t been reviewed yet?

Huh, how is it fixed? I just checked and the page doesn’t seem any more mobile-friendly than it used to be.
I can’t seem to change back the status of the bug though…

So it's merged to trunk now but apparently would still need deploying to production?

I've created a ticket #81525 to find out whether this could be moved to production already. CC:d Jonas, Alfonso.

The start.ubuntu.com webpage isn't touchfriendly. And certainly not fixed at all. The page is unusable for touch devices with small screens.

Try reloading the page, it has been updated. I’m attaching a screenshot of how it looks like on my device.
