> I read HN on my phone I have to zoom to be able to reliably click a link.

Overall I like the HN UI and wouldn't want it changed, but I do largely agree with this particular criticism; a lot of the click targets are too small IMO. (In particular, the upvote/downvote buttons' 13x13px targets stand out as way too tiny on mobile.)

However, saying that the click targets are too small means the whole UI is terrible seems a bit on the hyperbolic side. You could maintain pretty much the exact same UI with slightly larger click targets and it would fix your issue.
