Reddark: Website to watch subreddits going dark

I agree with everything except the mobile usability. Hacker News has some of the best mobile usability of the websites I am using. It is not perfect but it is way better than Reddit. Hacker News is very comfortable to read on mobile and the only thing which could be improved is the too small voting buttons.

Reddit are intentionally sabotaging the mobile Web experience to drive people to the app.

Of course, that often backfires.

HN hasn't actively sabotaged mobile. But it hasn't gone out of its way to make the experience better either.

I agree that Reddit is borderline unusable in its mobile website, and the official app is ad-ridden, but 3rd party apps (the ones they're trying to kill) are fine.

I find HN a royal pain on mobile tbh. Everything clickable is so small.

To be fair almost all websites are a pain on mobile. My smartphone is becoming more and more a messaging app and alarm clock ._.
