Comments on Trilby for Hacker News for Android

★★★★★ An option to mark posts as read when clicking on the link would be nice. Favorite/upvote functions can sometimes be slow. Otherwise, really good.

★★★★★ I like the interface, but I think it would be even better if there were a tab that shows the news sorted by number of likes (from highest to lowest) within the last 24 hours: - Top: for the most upvoted stories in the last 24 hours. - Hot: for stories currently receiving the most likes and comments (i.e., trending now). I believe this would improve the experience, as important stories posted earlier in the day can easily get buried and go unnoticed if you check the app later.

★★★★★ No swipe to upvote. Font choices aren't good enough.

★★★★★ Long time user of HN app by Manuel Maly. One behavior that's annoying to me is the pull to the right on the comments view that reveals the story list view. I find myself activating that quite often without intending to. I think relying on the default go back gesture (swiping left from the right edge of the screen) would make it feel more natural. Having a button to get to comments would feel more natural than tapping on the story card.

★★☆☆☆ I wrote a big fkn comment and then it says not successful
