I built hacker news client HACK for iOS, MacOS and Android which scrapes the HN page HTML and this is how I implemented it - when you collapse a comment, it tells you how many child comments that comment has. You could try my app to see if it’s user friendly for accessibility (I don’t have much experience with it so I am not sure).

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your hard work. Your app is excellent and has quickly become the dominant way for me to interact with Hacker News. It lets me silo my reading and has been a valuable tool in preventing Hacker News from being a distraction in my work day. In the entire time I’ve been using it I’ve only come across one bug! (On the iPhone, the UI can very very rarely lock up when transitioning from the comment view to the post list view… and I do mean very rarely, it’s so rare I don’t care, it’s still 5 stars in my book. I only mention it because the thought occurred to me that having to force quit the app might interfere with crash diagnostics giving you information about this particular bug)

Thank you very much for the kind feedback :)

I had someone else mention that rare bug too but unfortunately I haven’t been able to reproduce it to be able to narrow it down. I will see what I can do to fix it.

I'm on a PC and don't currently use a smartphone, but thanks for the suggestion and I will bear it in mind, and give you some feedback if I do use it. I'm sure others on hear could give you some feedback in the meantime.
