I just tried it, although it asks to upgrade to a premium version to post comments. I think I'll just keep the authenticated browser tab open to post comments for now. :)

Odd - I'm using Octal now, and it hasn't required an upgrade for comment posting. In fact, I didn't even know there was a premium version.

The developer changed the pricing model about a month back (?). People who got it before the change were grandfathered into the premium service.

Can confirm - using the base version to post this comment. Now posts are a different story - you can’t publish a post from Octal.

Huh, didn’t notice you can’t post till now. Maybe it’s in the works?

Looks really nice. I leave it installed but won’t be my daily driver until it gets darkmode and ability to post replies.

What do you use instead?

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/...).

Thanks. I downloaded Boreal on this recommendation and have paid the 99p premium upgrade because after trying a few clients it is far superior. Also after lurking for years long this is the first comment I’ve ever made!

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

Sorry but I just have to accuse you of being a shill.
