Don't require WebRTC on the landing page. Apple browsers don't support it but I can't imagine you want to prevent those people from even learning about your product.

You are right, by using WebRTC we are ignoring Safari users. Since this is a prototype we are looking forward to get majority browser users involved (Safari is around %3.5).
Doesn't work on iOS 10 either, so it seems 3.5% is very low.
You are right when taking into account the mobile users safari is way more than 3.5%. As I said currently we are not targeting mobile users.

We think a specific app would be required which having it on both iOS and Android requires resources.

Do you think the current MVP shows the potential of the idea?

I use HN with an RSS reader on my iOS devices so I wasn't able to check it out.
