- scns 5y agoWell, i usually read HN on my mobile with Materialistic. It is one of the apps i use the most often.
- hunterb123 5y agoSame, it works offline, loads faster with bad mobile connection, better gestures & UX overall.
- mikeyjk 5y agoThere's no way to be notified of comment replies, or see votes, though. But otherwise I love it as well.
- codazoda 5y agoDumb question time… How do you get notifications on comment replies? I thought this missing feature was “by design” to limit bickering. Edit: I won’t (eventually) see your reply because I just hit the comment depth limit. Reach out by email if you want to answer. :P

- acdha 5y agoThere's a handy site if you see this: https://hnreplies.com/ https://hnreplies.com/
- aspenmayer 5y agoThere is no comment depth limit per se; to continue replying, you must click the timestamp of the comment you wish to reply to.
- bccdee 5y agoEven twitter is a PWA now — the app is redundant.
- pjmlp 5y agoI use twitter's PWA. Not planning to ever use the proper app.
