#12Any chance of HN getting angry about this, à la Reddit?
Ok. I don't need or want this.
Doesn't mean others can't find it useful. e.g. I bet some portion of users would appreciate Dark mode without resorting to CSS tweaks. /rant

#13I've been using Octal on iOS and https://github.com/IronsideXXVI/Hacker-News on Mac that was showcased here 4 months ago.
Got to give you kudos for the Accessibility enablement though - while some of it is baked-in support, it’s worth appreciating your work in whittling down whatever else can be supported.
Here is a comparison for the two on Mac, if you're interested. https://gq6o9uxicyzuw8es6qxe78bnml9wc3re.pastehtml.dev/#core

#14HN is quite nice inside a desktop browser, but mobile browsers are a different story altogether. But even there, it fares slightly better than old.reddit.com. So looks like I should dust off that xcode.
I disagree it works great in Vanadium.

(Perhaps they meant as in Is This At Risk of the Apollo Apocalypse rather than as in behaving more like Reddit?)

#17One thing that would be useful in the readme is instructions on how to install the built app on a phone, for those of us who don’t do iOS development.

#18Looks great!
It seems you’re nervous about getting permission to show what you made to the world from Apple.
May I suggest you encourage people who want to use the app to get their own subscription and build and install it themselves, or consider AltStore/SideStore. Or go via TestFlight with your own monetization built in.
No one should need permission to ship from a trillion dollar company.

#19i've been using hackfeed, it does the job.
make this available on testflight, this looks great, would love to daily drive it.
+1 for the accessibility features, great job!

This is a long bow to draw just for an excuse to get on your soapbox about Apple, especially talking to someone who has definitely heard it all before and has definitely formed their own view on this particular topic (and doesn’t need proselytising from you).
