Hacker News Reader

Installed it on iOS to try it out. Soon after, browsing HN on Safari I click on a link to an interesting-looking repo, which switches me to the GitHub app and shows me the raw text of the readme.md. Uninstalled it straight away.

What's the problem with that, or what do you expect? GitHub mobile web truncates the README so you'd have to click twice (which always annoyed me about GitHub mobile web!).

Is there not a way to configure the deep links?

I would expect it to show me the readme rendered, same as visiting it in a browser does. There didn’t appear to be a way to show it rendered at all either. Which is a massive problem if it’s going to hijack my browser so I cannot see it rendered at all from my mobile.
