to fix rendering layout using tables and cell width to render comment levels.
Just a few lines of CSS and Arc really. That would be a big overhaul only because HN is very small, but not that big in absolute.
And I just want a reasonable font size. On desktop it is miserable -- I always need to zoom to 133% to match the font size I see on other websites. On mobile it is ok.
I find it way too small on desktop, but it's not an issue because the browser remembers my zoom level.
But I also find it too small on my mobile, and increasing the font size doesn't improve things, just makes it necessary to scroll sideways to read the comments.
Overall the font size settings on HN are crap. I really wish @dang would listen to the frequent complaints and fix them.

I use the addon stylus on Firefox and apply a custom css. HN is really easy to customize and it never change.

Those two things are not related at all though
So, I'm fearful of that as most people here, but if any entity can manage a respectful update, it has to be someone Y Combinator can pay.
