Thread style would be better. I hate how Amethyst renders replies for example. It makes it hard to follow a conversation.

Treading design on mobile is hard.
I think the best mitigation could be the possibility to collapse sub-treads; this way you can easily skip to the next one. /cc #[0]
But what about Gossip? :)
Haven't tried it? Does it run on Android? Right now I'm using Iris on PC and occasionally Amethyst on Android. Not at all impressed with Amethyst TBH. Iris in web browser is great though.
Gossip is a native desktop-only client.
Check it: https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip
Prebuils releases a bit outdated (2/3 weeks ago) and the development is quite active, so the best option is to compile it from source (quite easy on a *nix OSes, using cargo).
Iris is great but I don't like very much the not-nested thread visualization; it can be a necessity on mobile but on desktop there is plenty of space to have a more structured navigation style, like Gossip is trying to achieve.
How do I impress you?
Please don't change Amethyst thread lines... Many users are used to it because of Reddit.
I agree #[0]. Amethyst have a nice threading design, despite the limited screen estate.
I hate it.
I prefer the way Iris does threads Twitter style.
