I really enjoy the app so far, very clean and simple user interface. The dev seems to read comments, so hopefully this gets seen: the ">" character for block quotes in markdown does not seem to be correctly rendered in comments. It is italicized, but not formatted in any other way. Normally markdown renderers I see will parse out the character and put it in a box or similar.

The reason for this is that HN delivers comments as HTML instead of markdown and doesn't use the
tag for blockquotes. Since comments on the HN website are rendered with a '>' and no additional standard blockquote styling I think the app is going to stick to that same convention.

Dev can you add flair or mark to indicate flagged post and comments, and swipe gesture for voting and bookmark. Superb app, beautifully designed, appreciate the work.
