I don't know the reasons why, but on my phone on both Chrome and Firefox the text size is drastically different between comments. I ended up going with the Dolphin browser for HN because it maintains a consistent text size, but I changed the settings on the browser to use the maximum text size. The main negative with this has been certain unzoomable pages having a paragraph less than the width of my phone and only showing a few words per line, causing me to have to scroll constantly as I read. Unless the content is really good, I normally just skip these. As long as they are zoomable, there hasn't been forced white space / margins added to the paragraph (shortening the already too short paragraph width, apparently gleaned from my phone screen size), or the text is reasonably sized (not too big), other pages work just fine though. Also, the Dolphin gesture feature is fun! (I have HN set to a y gesture) On a side note, some of the best experiences I've personally had browsing on my phone have been through VNC, if I have a good network connection. I realize that a lot of the processing gets offloaded from the phone this way, but I would really just like a more desktop-like experience on my phone. I have always been annoyed by apps that are basically just websites...The browser is often the only app I need. And mobile websites just frustrate me because they often take away features of the desktop version or make me have to use it in a completely different way and make it obnoxiously difficult to switch back (some random link at the bottom, or having to go settings -> request desktop version -> retype the url because it was changed to a mobile one -> reload the page). Browsers have had ways to change the "User Agent", but more and more this feature is either removed or doesn't even work.
