Have you tried to read your original post on mobile? It's a nightmare. Please don't use code blocks for prose.
- mjevans 8y agoI don't try to get real work done on mobile; it just isn't a good media for reading or composing anything complex, and a large threaded forum IS complex. Mobile is good for getting and sending small updates, and consuming videos at lunch.
- frosted-flakes 8y agoReading HN is not "real work", it's entertainment.
- TeMPOraL 8y agoOP is talking about writing long-form comments on HN. I guess you could consider this "entertainment" too, but it doesn't change the fact that smartphones are bad for this task.
- frosted-flakes 8y agoThat's completely tangential to the fact that code blocks should not be used for prose, because it makes it difficult to read.
