Earlier quoted context omitted.

Boreal is pretty good. Has dark mode and light mode. Allows to fold comments and reply. Nice and clean UI.( https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/boreal-a-hacker-news-client/... ).

Does the dark mode work for articles? I tried all of the various article view options but couldn't get it to work.

No, articles just open in the browser. Either the embedded boreal browser, embedden safari, or safari.

Actually there are quite some app on hacker news now I aware of this. Just use safari and safe host page. Can export to pdf easier on top of login etc.

At some point, I built https://tefter.io/~hackernews so that I could read HN but also other feeds and keep them easily categorised and searchable. It's a progressive web app, so it's easy to install on most devices. Give it a try!

Personally I do not like feeds that take 1/2 page or more on my mobile to cover one item. Drawback of showing pictures for feed items.

HN is super nice because it is so condensed (for me).
