Been there, tried that:

Trust me, it's worse on most devices. On the Android devices I tested comments often get compressed to two or three characters per line.

View on HN

On my galaxy note GT-N7000 I have the opposite problem - the text is tiny and I have to zoom in.

Would a better solution be to set a viewport width of 800 or 1000 pixels on mobile devices?

Bummer, but thanks for the reply. FWIW, I'd prefer compression of nested comments over having to scroll horizontally, back-and-forth, to read anything on the site.
