HACKER Q&A

Please increase the width of expand/collapse button


I browse HN several times a day on my mobile phone. It is difficult for me to collapse and expand the comments to reach the last read comment after a few hours.

More than half the time I can't tap on the Toggle anchor, and when I do, I accidentally tap on the timestamp instead of the [-] or [+].

I think adding a space around - and + would save me (and probably many others) a lot of frustration.

NB: Ask HN, because I am also looking for feedback from the community. Thanks!

Agreed. Actually, almost all links are too small on mobile. For example, it’s easy to log out when you try to go to your user page, or downvote a comment you intended to upvote.

I have found it effective to mail hn@ycombinator.com with requests like these. They are responsive.
