There is a Github you can use to open issues, specifically #96 https://github.com/HackerNews/HN/issues/96 https://github.com/HackerNews/HN/issues/96 There are also these mobile-web alternatives: http://hnmob.org/ http://hnmob.org/ http://ihackernews.com/ http://ihackernews.com/ You can also look at the source for HN, http://arclanguage.com/ http://arclanguage.com/ And some other places on github likely; it's not easy to get that code running. Also, I'm not sure it's easy to make the updates. Plus, Nick is very busy.

Another mobile alternative with a slick design (I use the wrapped-up iOS version available in the app store) http://hn.premii.com/ http://hn.premii.com/

  Completely misses a user profile interface and posting facility. Why go there if for commenting you still need to go at ycmobinator?

    You're right. In my case, I only use HN on mobile as a time-killer, cruising through interesting articles and emailing myself the ones that catch my interest. I don't get down and dirty until I'm on a desktop.

Each of those alternatives is missing something important. hnmob.org only formats front page while the comments pages (which can be the hardest to read) still link to HN. ihackernews.com does not have a search function and login seems to be not working, also check author's own explanation at http://ihackernews.com/login http://ihackernews.com/login In my opinion there simply doesn't exist a web or native app which works 100% and never needs you to flip back and forth from news.combinator.com As @kowdermeister said, it won't require much, just a couple of media queries. I'm not a fan too of over complicated things and I like HN raw, essential style. That sort of raw, minimal rule could also be used for a request from a smaller width device.

  I've fixed the stuff on http://hnmob.com/ http://hnmob.com/ so now you have more pages which are translated into a more mobile aware format. Also added Atom feeds for every page I could. Still a little sloppy, I'm only hacking this code when watching TNG re-runs (so every day ;p )
