### 2/5 — Please bring back comment pre-fetch

*2018-09-10, version 3.0*

I used to use this app to read HN every day on the subway on my way to work (no signal for >5 mins). Now that comment pre-fetch has been removed, this app is useless for me. Please bring back this feature!

### 5/5 — Top Reader

Maybe add a "share this article" button or at least allow copying, as I frequently want so share sth. and have to re-open hn in safari and navigate to the page I was on.
