I made a HN client that allows you to explore comments in a breadth-first manner. Compared to the classic depth-first approach, it works much better for the larger threads - you don't lose the context and can easily skip discussions you're not interested in.

Thanks for not surveilling the users of your app. I bought the premium version.

Nice job! Will you be releasing an Android version?

hnand•2h ago

Thanks! As of now I don't have any plans for Android. It's a native iOS app written in Swift, so that would require building a new app from the ground up.

Don't know if you saw, but Swift is coming to Android. Might not require a rebuild after all.

I also prefer BFS expansion of comments. So I implemented https://hn-reader.pages.dev/ for this. Also has dark mode to be easy on eyes.

I built one too at hacked.stream few months back in React Native

How does this compare to HACK? Getting fed up with the crash bug that’s been around for years.

Been using it for a while. Sometimes it takes a minute+ to initially refresh feeds but I thank that’s a HN issue?
