One question I have for the author is about keyboard access - there seem to be no keyboard shortcuts at all right now, or even basic navigation (up/down, etc.)

Yack! is a native desktop app built for online communities such as Hacker News, Reddit, YouTube, Indie Hackers and many more. It has an open source plugin architecture which allows anyone to build a plugin for their favorite communities. If you're interested in helping out, shoot me an email at hello[at]yack.io Looking forward to your feedback :)
Wasn't there an anonymous app called Yack as well?
