This has come up hundreds upon hundreds of times, and the answer is almost always "suck it up and use the mobile site" or "use tapatalk."

Well, as the topic suggests i am saying that Linus tech tips should have a mobile app through which we can access our accounts and write and reply to forums, just like in the website. I came up with this idea because nowadays my PC is in a repair shop because its power supply got roasted due to unfair amount of voltage due to some problem in the transformer. But your question is probably " why don't you open it on the browser". To be honest, the browser verion is okay but not good enough. The app will be better optimized, will have better visuals and we can access the site easily through it. Anyway even if its not worth it. How much time will it take for a bunch of pro programmers to create a mobile app. What do you guys think?

An app wouldn't have better visuals, and the optimisation difference would be pretty negligible. Are there any specific issues that you have with the mobile site?

That’s not true. I made a github repository. 

It’s super bad but it exists.
