Your app looks promising, I quite like the look and feel.
There are some low hanging UX improvements you could work on next: tapping on a story in the feed shows options to go to the comments or to the article, and I wish this could be done with a single tap.
Similarly, when reading comment threads it’s a bit annoying having to open replies one by one. For me, the best threaded discussion reader on iOS is Apollo which shows quite a few replies and goes more than 6 levels deep with indentation without having to tap anywhere.
I can already tell you that the default font size is going to be divisive, especially for readers of HN ;)
I’ll keep this app around and check the change logs to see if it could replace Octal, which I’m using now
Thank you, I'm really glad you find the UI appealing!

Nested comment design have been a weakness of mine and it certainly shows in Hazumi. I want to revamp comments so badly, showing a batch of nested comments in one tap or by default does sound better. A general theme I've been hearing here is "less taps to get to the content the better". 100% noted!

I ended up using the default `body` size from SwiftUI but if you mean it would be more appealing if smaller, then I could add a text sizing slider to the settings.
Thank you again for trying out Hazumi and giving your feedback!
