The site renders roperly for me. I don't see any difference from the site on desktop Firefox.
Should I close the bug or better wait for more feedback?

I think we would like the site to send Firefox OS users to top-channel.tv/mobile/ automatically - I think that makes the user experience better, there is less scrolling and zooming to do to read content. Hence, I think we should contact top-channel.tv and suggest that they improve their detection of mobile devices to include Firefox OS phones.

This bug is now fully analysed and anyone in the Mozilla community is welcome to reach out (politely! ;)) to top-channel.tv. 

You can use this letter template or tweet:

and also include this URL:
http://webcompat.com/simplebug/?id=981380
to give the site's webmaster a quick overview of the bug.

If you contact the site, please assign the bug to yourself and change "[contactready]" to "[sitewait]" in the box named "Whiteboard" (ask me if you can't change it).

Thank you!

I don't see any mobile browsers being sent to /mobile anymore. Maybe they dropped their mobile website? Or just broke something regarding the redirect..

No browsers are redirected to /mobile, but the mobile still exists.
They are promoting Native apps for iOS and Android in the home page

Don’t expect any relevant answer to your issue from here. This bug was related to a project which doesn’t exist any more (Firefox OS). The status says "Resolved/Fixed"…
