We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11732322 and marked it off-topic.

If this was detached, why is it still viewable on the thread?

Detached just means we made it be a top-level comment as opposed to a reply to another comment.

Your downvote has been cancelled out. :)

[insert obligatory 'redesign-HN-to-be-responsive' thread here]

It is responsive since few months now.
