Hacker News page width broken on mobile
The hacker news homepage is flowing off the screen on mobile today. Anyone else seeing this? The previous style sheet was practically perfect, hoping it isn’t a permanent change.
The issue is caused by the CNYoungerCousin(and so on) article title being 80-100 characters long without having a space in it. There’s no way to word wrap it and it breaks the style sheet.
If you browse HN /new with showdead enabled, there are often spam article titles where the spaces are replaced with ‘+’ and a long enough title without spaces will break the style sheet in the same way, which is how I found out about it and also how to fix it.
The solution is to click ‘hide’ on the offending article title and everything will word wrap correctly again.
Same, only the main pages though. Clicking into comments is normal. Anyone email Dan?
I’m surprised so many people use the website in mobile over the many great HN Apps out there. Octal on iOS is one of my favorite apps.
I just noticed this, it happened after I changed my top bar color, so I thought maybe I broke it for me.
Seems to have suddenly jumped for me in the last 10 minutes, yeah.
I'm seeing the same.
I just found this one which works fine, and it also has dark mode
