Is it possible to revert to the old layout?

I’ve stayed logged in for a while and it’s a bit better but still very clunky. I keep wondering if someone is spying on me. Why is there so much stubbornness about fixing this site?
And why do I keep getting “There was a problem with this page so it was reloaded?” I don’t get this on other sites.

I seem to get this on most of the FT forums I use: Air Canada, WestJet mainly, using iPad with Safari browser. (Please don't tell me to use the mobile skin. It sucks. Since I don't get this on other sites it should be fixable.)

The mobile skin is the solution. The desktop version of FT is too media-intensive for the iPad, which is what causes that page reloading. That's why we have the different versions. I've experienced the same issue on Gizmodo Media sites on my own iPad. That you don't experience it on other sites is probably a result of them using mobile versions that are just "less noticeable".
