Ask HN: Why doesn't PG do a responsive version of HN?
Reading front page on phone devices and reading long comments on laptops are fairly inconvenient. Doesn't PG himself use his phone to visit HN and see this pain?

- mtgx 14y agoYeah, the website is kind of a pain on mobile. I recommend the Hacker News 2 app, if you're on Android. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airlocksoftware.hackernews&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5haXJsb2Nrc29mdHdhcmUuaGFja2VybmV3cyJd https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airlocksof...

- dragonwriter 14y agoReading long comments on laptops is a problem? It's not on any that I've used (including the old 11.6" netbook.) And, heck, even on my iPhone 4, reading and writing comments isn't particularly uncomfortable (it's what I'm writing this comment on. HN, IMO, doesn't need the overhead of a specialized mobile presentation, whether provided by a responsive layout library or otherwise.
- davidthewatson 14y agoGood question - the answer to which is probably that he doesn't have to since others have filled in the gaps. I find hacker news illegible and not very user friendly. So I use this on my Android phone: http://hackerwebapp.com/ http://hackerwebapp.com/
