I usually Command+ to make the font size larger ( or CTRL+ for PC ) so when I resized my browser window width making it very narrow, I was pleasantly met with a change UI—I could clearly see the number of comments on a story! Nice work to the UI creator.
That’s what it looks like on mobile too, it’s the same lobsters we know and love but the comment target gets bigger. It’s nice having a site where you don’t have to pretend to be a desktop browser (and then pinch to zoom) to avoid getting a half-baked version of the site.
Yes I actually prefer the tight/portrait mobile view solely because of the large comment links :)
That’s responsive design for ya. ;)
