This is by design. If you want to make the main page editable, you will need to add an explicit link inside the content to point to the editor. e.g. edit this page

I do have an edit on every page - but not on the main page.

So, mobile users cannot edit the main page.

For my application, this is bad.

You'll need to add a link inside the wikitext to support this. You can hide the link for desktop if needed in MediaWiki:Common.css

i also have no edit capabilities on the mainpage. i use it in desktop mode. have to switch to another skin for editing content of the mainpage.

Yes - I also have this problem. Users have to switch to another skin to edit main page. Entering the correct URL for editing the page just gives a blank page.

I still have this issue where there is no edit button on the main page when on mobile.

I'm currently testing minerva and see the same issue. I can only set a link to the text editor using [https://.../index.php/?title=Main_Page&action=edit Edit this page].

To insert that, I have invoked the URL manually. In the above link you have to insert your hostname and verify the main-pages's name.
