Can we make the font bigger for mobile view?

Question

Hi,I browse HN daily on my smallish Pixel 4 XL phone. The font size of important DOM elements, including the "new" hyperlink, are so tiny that I often accidentally tap the wrong element.Can we please update the style to more modern, Bootstrapesque standards for easier consumption on mobile devices?

In Chrome, open Settings > Accessibility and set the text scaling to a larger number. I use 130% just because of Hacker News.
I also wrote my own client using the API https://github.com/gabrielsroka/gabrielsroka.github.io/blob/...
We've asked for UI improvements and dark mode for a long time. I don't think they're ever going to happen.

Tangential, but have you tried alternative HN interfaces? There&rsquo;s a decent sized list at https://github.com/cheeaun/awesome-hacker-news , which includes my own humble effort in this direction: thnr.net
