#62* Bail. Only six stories are visible at a time.
* Please add a way to turn it off, showdead-style. I miss the old style.

#63I'm not a fan as I can't see as much on the homepage as I could before. I know the font was small but it didn't bother me.
Now it feels kind of crowded, lots of wrapped text.
Seems I'm in the minority though. Agree that the up/down arrows are still quite small, but I'm not sure how you could fix that, you don't have much room to work in.
iOS 9.1 on iPhone 6.

#64great update. Keep improving this!

#65Much better, but not great on iPhone 5c: http://i.imgur.com/beYBY5f.jpg

#66Much better than before. I'm on Chrome on a Nexus 6.
The screen is zoomed in slightly by default, however, but a quick pinch to zoom out makes it all fit well on the screen at a good size.

#67Keep going keep going!

#68Yes please keep it! It was so hard to read before on mobile.

#69This looks (and more importantly, works) much better than before. For those not on mobile, here is what the new layout looks like on an iPhone 6s on iOS 9.0.1. ==> http://imgur.com/5LgB1xB.jpg Here is what the comment page looks like ==> http://i.imgur.com/ugOASR5.png This is the viewport bug when you try to enter a comment ==> http://i.imgur.com/i0Ekiod.png and http://i.imgur.com/T0NDIFc.png
But why does horizontal mode (my standard casual reading mode) look so blown out? ==> http://imgur.com/5Z6q6wI

I use the same environment -- iPhone 5c, iOS 9 and Safari and have the exact same experience.
Personally, I'd like the old mobile display back!!
Edit - I noticed that the OP was logged out in the screenshot, so I tried it again. Here is an image of the screen when I am not logged in:

The only difference between the two cases is that I was too lazy to log out, so I just pulled up the page in private mode.
I wish I had an iPhone 6 as I'd like to try this case with the OP's environment.
