A bit of ui advice — you can tell what phone I’m browsing on from user agent screen. You should default to showing me the right games right on the landing page.

- quaice 7y agoI personally liked that I could pick. I was browsing HN on Android but wanted to see what games were available for my kids iOS device. I liked that the decision was mine and that it was presented clearly rather than being forced to see a pre-filtered list.
- StavrosK 7y agoThanks for the feedback, I think it would be better if I let the user choose since I personally want to look at both lists sometimes (or I'm on the PC). Besides, it's very easy to just bookmark the platform you want and go there, but I will consider it.
