My feedback:
- Lose post numbers, make vote&thumbnail take less space horizontally - they tske enough to make the site look broken on mobile.
- Likewise, info about the post is too long- you can probably get away with hiding the instance a user is from, changing "posted 9 hours ago (last edited 5 hours ago" to "Posted 9h ago (edited 5h ago)"
- Merge the "expand/embed" button with the thumbnail
- Add reply, share, save, hide, etc buttons next to "x comments". Just color them different if not logged in, otherwise you're giving the impression that the functionality is missing
- Make "permalink" include context, or add a "context" button
- Make the list of communities on the top bigger and line-wrapped. They're too small to comfortably click on mobile
- Change the theme a bit so it doesn't actually look like a Reddit clone.
