These other features you've added are good. But years after I started using HN, I still accidentally downvote when I want to upvote because the mobile experience is...well, you know. You all probably often use HN on a mobile device. Please, please, please, can we have a mobile-friendly layout?
Tell HN: Clickable domains and other new features for story quality

#132Any chance we can have collapsible comments without a greasemonkey script, or bookmarklet?

#133I don’t mind the use of green (as compared to some other color) to indicate 'new site', but could you tone it down a little bit, or give users the option to disable it? On an otherwise neutral page, the green stands out and is quite distracting. Maybe use something like #6a8966 ( http://www.colorpicker.com/6a8966 )?
I agree that the classic noob green is a little loud, but wow, your eyes are way sharper than mine, or we're using different devices, or both. Maybe we can tone it down a bit though.
Maybe an option like the top bar colour?

If I accidentally downvote I immediately find two other posts by the same author and upvote them.

Until there's an 'official' version, @cheeaun's HackerWeb is an excellent alternative for all platforms: https://cheeaun.github.io/hackerweb/
You can't login to comment though. Or am I missing something?

I've also done this on desktop. The ability to change your vote, possibly only for a limited amount of time after casting it, would be far more valuable to me.
As a bonus: please don't refresh the page just because I upvoted someone. Why should I search where it is I left off reading just because I upvoted someone?
EDIT: nevermind about second point, it looks like it happens only if JS is disabled. My bad. :)

Right now the green screams “look at me” and unbalances the whole page. http://i.imgur.com/GhUfRn5.png
Here’s my proposed color, which is still plenty noticeable if you look for it, but now subtle enough to not stand out: http://i.imgur.com/vjW5DYT.png
