 ### Fixed
 
+- Board columns are frames that fit the screen and scroll on their own, with the column heading staying put, so a long column no longer pushes the next one far down the page. Narrow screens keep the plain one-column flow.
 - Sign-in refused as cross-origin in Firefox: the app sent `Referrer-Policy: no-referrer`, under which Firefox sends `Origin: null` on same-origin POSTs. The policy is now `same-origin`, which still sends nothing to other sites.
