m.reddit.com broken on Android?

I've been using m.reddit.com on my G1 Android for years now and it has been great. It's super light weight, which is about all my phone can handle anyway. In the last few weeks, the site design has changed, and now the comments are often un-readable (see screenshot http://i.imgur.com/inwyo.png). Who do I have to see around here to get this fixed? thanks.

Try another android browser like Miren or similar to start with to make sure it's not the browser you use that's messing it up. The free app "Reddit is fun" work great too imo. At least for me it's faster than browsing to m.reddit.com

I don't know if m.reddit is any different than i.reddit (they got rid of the damn toolbar! Yay!) but you could try that. As far as the specific screenshot that you posted, it seems like you're too deep in the comment nest. Have you tried landscape view?

The G1 is old so I assume you're running cm? Cm has some issues rendering reddit in general that is not browser specific but worth a shot. If landscape view doesn't work, make sure your os is up to date, try another browser, use RiF or get a new phone.

This post in r/Kindle might explain why it stopped working: we_just_made_some_changes_to_the_oldstyle_mobile

Maybe you could contact the poster and report your issue.

Not sure if it helps, I am using a droid x running 2.2 and I don't have a problem with the comments.
