I recently sort of "revived" my old 1024x600 EeePC netbook and noticed that addons.palemoon.org doesn't fit horizontally and requires a minimum resolution width of 1280px (at least with 100% zoom).
Now normally I would think "well ok, this netbook is almost 10 years old - I don't expect modern websites to cater to such devices", but the rest of palemoon.org (including the main homepage as well as forums.palemoon.org) seems to fit perfectly fine without any horizontal scrolling on resolutions with a width of only 1024px.
Therefore, I was wondering if this discrepancy in the minimum required horizontal resolution isn't a mistake rather than an intentional design choice? I mean, I would have expected all of palemoon.org to be designed around a minimum width of 1024px or 1280px rather than splitting the difference...
Addons site is "too wide" for 1024px wide screen, yet the rest of palemoon.org fits?

I noticed the same thing, too.
It doesn't resize when you narrow the width of your window. whereas other Pale Moon web sites do.

The add-ons site's layout is different because it has different needs for information in its design.
It can't be made as "fluid" as the main website because of the need to display specific type of information. Tobin has been in charge of that design in Phoebus. If you think this is an issue that must be addressed, it's best to raise it on the repo.
