On desktop Firefox, the page width seems to have a minimum of 500-550px, so it looks like there is something broken since phones are 320px minimum.

Also below 375px it seems to revert to the desktop layout (?!?).

So the graphical design is fine, but the CSS implementation could use some major improvements.

I now don't have to zoom, still sub-par can't we have a official native app?

I think an official app, while nice would be a lot of work and would use a lot of manpower HN does not seem to have much of.

there are currently many third party apps.

It's definitely better than the previous version. But, honestly, I already gave up on browsing Hacker News on mobile. Instead, I just use a dedicated MiniHack App.

I think it would be cool to open up API even more and let community create amazing apps for you. Maybe create a contest for people to develop native apps? Perhaps, a winner could get an interview to get into YC or YCF.
