Could not be arsed to flick through 50 pages!

Doesn't help you too much on this thread but if you go into your options you can alter the number of posts per page to reduce the number of pages on the thread. I have mine set to 20 posts per page, so is half the number of pages on the thread than yours. I think you can put as many as 50 posts per page if you want.

As regards the mobile version, this is still being worked on, mainly by the software owners and developers, so is still not where it should be but changes are coming. In the meantime I have found that the green arrow to the left of the title of a thread that has new posts on it, will sometimes work as designed and take you to the first new post since you last visit. Alternatively, I have also done what you did and just post a full stop. This then automatically takes you to the last post, yours in this case and allows you to scroll to other posts. At that point you can add a comment which then appears under your full stop.
