I use MiniHack, which is mind-blowingly good now that the update came through. Full comment posting on mobile and tablet, upvoting, flagging, everything. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/minihack-for-hacker-news-yc/id631108846?mt=8 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/minihack-for-hacker-news-yc/...

  MiniHack is easily my favorite iOS app now. The dark theme is beautiful and it has all the basic features you need.

This is just the first prototype, product of 3 to 4 hours. If I have time, I plan to add anything on the original hacker news page that I can.

I've seen a lot of "redesigns" of HN, but that is by far my favorite of them all.

  I've been using the "Hacker News Enhancement Suite" [1], which isn't much of a suite as it is a more Reddit-like version of HN. Namely, it has collapsible comments, inline replying, and a generally nicer but not over-designed layout.

    I like that, too. Too bad it's only for Chrome.

Agree, but the current version omits all numerical point data and the repeating #comments 30 times uses alot of pixel space. I'm wondering if there's not a hack or abstraction that might benefit the layout.

That website doesn't have the same thread ordering as the homepage on the real thing, or it seems to be delayed... if you pull up both in parallel you'll see it quite obviously...

  The stories are cached in both API-side and client-side for few minutes, so you'll see some discrepancies.
