    We're aware of how poorly nested comments render on small screen widths. It's one of the things we have to fix.

    FWIW, we do have a dedicated mobile version, and cases like this are one of the reasons the classic site is still around, and will be around for a long time yet.

    I'm sorry it's not usable on your devices yet, but we're working to finish it, and definitely not ignoring those use-cases.

Scientists will study your brain to learn more about your distant cousin, Man.
