No. I use Safari for both desktop and mobile, if that matters. I never search. I don't need custom styles to increase readability. I don't need more space around headlines, or article preview thumbnails, or any other superfluous thing. I open interesting headlines for reading and comment threads for discussion into background tabs. I read. I close tabs. I move on with my day.

Why did you think I was joking?



- Perfect: No better implementation can exist.

- Best: No better implementation exists.

- Favorite: No better implementation is known to me.

The current implementation of HN is at best decent.

I can think of 100 ways to improve it. I would be surprised you couldn't.


I don't think "perfect" was meant to be taken literally.


I honestly can't think of any.


Thread collapse on the right, increase text size (seriously why is it so tiny?), remove pointless numbers on the left side of homepage, remove BS sponsored YC job postings, take better advantage of horizontal real estate on desktop, make everything easier to click on mobile (I have to zoom to hit stuff all the time).

This site is fine, and I use the regular version on desktop and mobile, but let's not deceive ourselves into thinking it's perfect.


You know you can increase and decrease views in modern browsers right? On chrome for mac, use command minus for decrease and command equals for increase. I run my browsers at 110%


Well sure but that doesn't change the fact that default is bad. It's not a major problem in my life, but it's a flaw in the design.
