What Desktop HN client do you use?

Question

Do you use any desktop client for HN, or just the web version? I wonder what folks generally use. For me, comment/topics/keywords notifications are important features for me that's missing from the web.

I use a client I wrote in Godot and hack on when I'm bored sometimes.
I probably won't ever release it because it isn't nearly feature complete but here's what the page display looks like[0]

I just use the website on desktop and mobile. I tried a couple apps on the phone, but it didn't seem worth having an app for.

I just use the website, both desktop and mobile. The absence of notifications is a great feature.

I was not aware there was such a thing as a desktop client for this website, though it seems pretty obvious that somebody would make one, now that you mention it.
