Yeah that tends to happen sometime on mobile browsers with Acmlmboard sites. Honestly don't know why it does that, there doesn't seem to be any logical reason as to why only certain parts do that. Might be some sort of special sauce browser thing to increase readability for mobile users but failing.

Also I'm glad there's still someone else who's stuck on Android 6 like me.

Quite possibly. The <head> element you're talking about is this one: 
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Admittedly it's more than likely not that simple, because this is Acmlmboard! There might be some more things that would need fixing as well. Abusing tables for site layouts is bad for a mobile usability perspective as well IIRC... I usually just do the 'Desktop Site' option and zoom in, not perfect but it works.

Firefox for Android (Chrome probably has something similar) has a 'Remote Debugging via USB' setting where you can connect your phone to a computer and then use some sort of DevTools thing on your computer (inspect element) to control the page. I haven't tried it though so I can't tell you how it works exactly and get it working.

Also my phone is a Vernee Apollo Lite, cheapo chinese android phone. Got it in early 2017 so that'd be 4 years I've had it now. That's a long time. Hasn't been updated in just as long time, which is a shame because the hardware is not too bad, only thing is the outdated OS (no Termux or Minecraft Earth, and it's only gonna get worse ).

I did that a while ago. There was one Android 7 ROM if I remember correctly, but I don't know how stable it is or if it'll work. I really don't wanna flash it just to figure out there's a little bug with my cellular provider not working at all with it. I honestly just want a new phone. I was looking at some Nokia phones since I want stock Android with decent updates, instead of getting a phone with a stupid iPhone rip-off skin with bloatware and having to fiddle with flashing custom ROMs and shit. But... Linux phones are a thing now (has been for quite some time now actually), and I'm sort of drooling at the thought of that so I'm a bit split on what to choose.

Oh, intriguing. I wonder if a Linux distro on mobile would fare better than the mess that is attempting to update Android, which ironically is one space iOS somehow manages to be better at.
Well as long as your distro maintainer doesn't give up on you you should be good to go. Everything, even drivers and such, being open source would make it easy to continue maintaining it unofficially if the official maintainers ever were to give up. Hopefully. If anyone would care about it that is.

On a note, you mentioned Nokia: I heard that there's been a recent issue with some of their phones shipping with a faulty firmware, so watch out for that. I'm not sure which models are affected as I haven't looked too deeply into it.
Oh, I actually haven't heard about that. Seems like not even official ROMs are free of bugs, I'll be sure to watch out for that.
