- cebert 3y agoI primarily use HN on my phone and have no issues with the density. In fact, I wish more mobile sites were like this. I loathe the mobile experience on sites like CNBC where there’s low density and stock photos for each headline. It takes multiple scrolls to see all the headlines.
- pilgrim0 3y agoFont size for text and titles are ok, but links are too small, I developed tap anxiety as I frequently miss click things. But that’s not the worst part, navigating through huge threads of comments is. I would like to see all root comments first and then decide what thread is worth expanding, not being forced to collapse threads I’m not interested in.

- xigoi 3y agoThe font size is fine, but buttons and links are way too small, especially vote buttons.
