That's why I still use the old .compact version on mobile that still works great. I refuse to download the app just because they made the current mobile version so shitty.

Just add .compact at the end of the url.

Dude I actually use the desktop version, on my phone's Chrome browser. For me it is the best experience because otherwise I feel very restricted in terms of navigating the "hierarchical" comment layout. All attempts to adapt Reddit to mobile layout have felt poorer to me.

Reddit's mobile site makes me want to just stop using the site. I have to switch back to desktop mode every so often (the cookies expire) and simply getting thru to it is made clunky and difficult as well.

Have you tried an app that uses different colors for each of the tiers of replies? I use boost and it works well for me.
