Ask HN: On mobile it's too easy to tap hide or flag

Any ideas for fixing that? Maybe on mobile moving to a “more” pop up menu or something? I’m always having to unflag or unhide because it’s really easy to tap those links when trying to tap the main link.

Thanks for making HN.

    Mods are aware, there is a backlog task to ask for confirmation when flagging.

    You're better off sending such questions to hn@ycombinator.com

    I also have to greatly expand the text before I attempt to up or down vote a comment. The arrows are so close together that it is too easy to fat finger the wrong one.

    I just stay away from those choices, especially the mobile one ;)
