I find the sidebar very confusing. I can not click on the INBOX folder for example.

#24“ This demo is optimized for desktop screens (1000px+).” Opportunity missed with me, not everyone browses HN on their desktop. At least have some screenshots of your app so I am motivated to check later.

#25On Android, you need to request the desktop version, rotate the phone to landscape, and refresh; assuming you have a tall enough screen (in px). If it was like Cursor with BYOK, custom instructions, and the ability to have it automatically draft replies when I open an email, and integration with popular suites like Google and Outlook (even if via MCP or CLI) and integration with whatever else I want to integrate it w…
> On Android, you need to request the desktop version, rotate the phone to landscape, and refresh; assuming you have a tall enough screen (in px). That's what I thought should do the trick, too, but for me it worked neither in Firefox nor in Chrome. (I have a Pixel 10 Pro, so the resolution should definitely be high enough.)
Worked on Pixel 8!

#27Please I’d rather have a bad mobile view than a blocker! I know it seems bad but you can always just tell the user to zoom out, a mobile view is coming!
Or even a video alternative for mobile would be good.

#29I really hope the OP reads the following comment.
And, Hey, I promise, I wouldn't willingly... go *out of my way ON A late FRIDAY EVENING (EST)* -- as I low key peruse HN on some sh* mobile browser at a dinner event --
This is really awesome. It took me a second, but then I realized I'm inline tinkering with the product.
Don't let these "pitter, patter" HN minor critiques get in the way of delivering a novel product that is currently on the top of HN.
If it auto-went to dark mode, I would've probably been even more "whoa, i get it..". I know it makes no sense, but, default to dark-mode w/ a fallback header "light" option?
Also, for someone who has dark mode configured on their most visited websites, the light is a little overwhelming. Not at your fault by any means. It's just this may be your average visiting user on your app. I could be the only one, of course.
Excited to see where this goes.

I had to rotate the phone then zoom out 60% then it worked, but by then it's unreadable.
