Why?

I don't wear an Apple watch but I do wear a smartwatch, and I can't imagine a reason to want this website on it.

Its not website its feed browser and comments reader with optional article browser view. Its something I wanted from first day I got apple watch.

		Fair. I could see use for a wristborne RSS poller/reader, especially in my old systems & networks admin days. That said, the "leave your phone behind" use case never appealed to me, and turning my watch's radios on in regular operation would reduce its battery life by an order of magnitude. Oh, there's obviously a fashion for the pretense of a tech-free life, but it never seems to improve the equanimity of its pursuers and so I haven't really seen the appeal. Still, that's a "me" problem, and I appreciate the context on your app. Nice work!

You're confusing this website with your e-mail inbox again. The post was made intended for the general public, not a message written personally for you.

		"You're," and I think you meant to remove one of "made intended."

I suspect this is a "because I can" project ;-)

So you can read Hacker News on your watch.

I find myself doing this randomly when I don’t have access to my phone (believe it or not, it happens for legit reasons) through something called ųBrowser.

It’s probably masochistic but it works in a pinch. I’ve been thinking of writing my own watch app to do this, as well as an app that could use the Feedbin API.

		I might use the word 'compulsive,' but you would know better than I. On another subject, you should email hn@ycombinator.com to get your account un-shadowbanned. That generally also is a better, or at least less in-band, way to raise concerns like the presence of obvious spam. Otherwise, the risk is that you'll get caught up in an imperfectly selective mass mod action to deal with a bunch of spam burners, as appears to have occurred a couple weeks ago.
