Just checked; both my comment and TFA appear full width on my phone. Bog-standard Android.

Maybe other people do not use the same setup as you do.
That much is obvious given that a vanilla phone setup has no trouble with even 90-character lines. Not my business to stop anyone making things hard on themselves, though, so good luck you all!

(do we have anyone who reads HN over a morse clacker?)

I have vision problems, I increase zoom a lot in desktop and mobile.

What do you have against people different than youself?

Nothing; I wished you luck! I imagine people with screenreaders have an even tougher time...

(mobile I agree would be hopeless with zoom [I avoid reading on mine even without zoom], but does your desktop zoom mean even TFA's vt100-friendly 72-chars needed reflowing?)

I don't always increase zoom but TFA is def too small on desktop. I just increase until its readable, that being said, the article is comfortable for me at about 200-250%. Reflow issues seem to occur at 300% - so no issue for me but I could see some people going that high.
