The comments don't render correctly on FF on Android. They all render one after another and it's impossible to tell which comments are replies and which aren't. :(

Same problem here. You can see the same effect on desktop FF by narrowing your window.

Can you also switch from the current indentation layout (via images in a table) to a div-based layout where all subcomments are inside the element of the parent comment?

Like, currently it’s

    <tr><td><img width="40"></td><td>Text1</td></tr>
    <tr><td><img width="60"></td><td>Text2</td></tr>
After it would be

    <li class="comment">
      <p>Text1</p>
      <ul class="subcomments">
        <li class="comment>
          <p>Text2</p>
        </li>
      </ul>
    </li>

Same here. I've been using a desktop user-agent to get rid of this.

I actually find myself reading the site considerably less because of this, I'm sure I'm not the only one. Please let me set a cookie to keep the desktop version!!

If using mobile Firefox on Android, there's "request desktop version" on the menu pulldown.
