Similar concept but with Gherkin syntax: https://github.com/hidroh/cucumber-api

It's the 1st version of on-screen navigation so for sure there are rooms for improvement. I think of it as a D-pad, as in games, when you make selection with D-pad, down means sele…

Yeah that's one way to go. Probably I'll use Algolia for users that prefer up front loading. It's slower than official API but would do the job.

Got it thanks!

I already did some optimization to load 1 extra page of comments in advance, which I believe should improve the experience. I also tried the same trick for stories but got some jan…

I have something similar in mind but haven't get started yet. It can be done via HN API, but it can only be done at regular interval (polling), as I don't use Firebase but raw web …

I already have similar request in my backlog. This is gonna be tricky, because I don't have all comments up front as they are loaded on demand (even for saved comments - loaded on …

1. I can't sync vote status so it's only a best effort at the moment to let you vote. Of course after the 1st vote is recorded subsequent votes will not count. This for sure can be…

It's stored under your device's accounts, which you can manage via Settings -> Accounts. The same way Google apps work.

Thanks! Would be helpful if you can share your device info so I can try to reproduce that issue. If you still keep the app around you can just send an in-app feedback and it will a…

Sorry you don't find it useful :( No downvote is a known issue, partly because I can't test it, so I'm not confident I'll deliver a reliable feature. I agree that upvote should be …

Disable card view (which is the default for new installations) + choose smaller text size would achieve more or less the same. I have already gone thru few iterations of compacting…

No, I have to chain requests, using cookies.

You're correct. Saved/bookmarked stories have been there way before HN has favorite. I'm thinking of syncing these two, but it's not very straightforward without API support.

I have made releases available to download here, effectively same as F-Droid, but easier for me to publish: https://github.com/hidroh/materialistic/releases

Thanks! I have incorporated the idea of on-screen navigation button and grouping setting options. What else you think I should consider from Relay?

Single story refresh is a nice idea. I just added it to my backlog. Thanks!

It's because stories/comments are loaded on demand. If you never scroll to it it won't be loaded. It was designed this way partly due to how HN API works, which doesn't provide all…

It supports Konami code as well :)

I'm aware of the issue and trying to find a way to mitigate it.

It's already on my list, just didn't have time to do it yet.

I plan to implement downvoting but I'm not sure of the logic involved (I don't have enough karma to test it myself). Probably I'll add it to a beta channel and let users help test …

When I created it material design was a hot thing, so I just randomly came up with that name. Now it's not relevant anymore but I keep the name to avoid confusion for existing user…

Remind me of a (sort of) similar story of how Iranians consume online content https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11552423 , though for a different reason.

I like how Scrum promotes transparency and trains each individual to become self-managed (or at least getting better at it). But it often feels like it's being hyped up, with many …
