The solution is for people to stop using blockquote formatting for text and reserve it for it's intended puprose of quoting code and retaining formatting.

The solution is to wrap text for mobile devices. It's easy to test for screen size.

HN already has that, it's called

   Not doing this when you paste in a block of written material

Or just doing something like this to indicate you pasted in a block of text

"Or just using quotes"

   for chicken in chicken:
    chicken = chicken['chicken']
    chick = chicken['chicken']
    print ( chicken + '; ' + chicken )
        return "blockquoting is for code"

It's not that you can't scroll, it's just very tedious to scroll back and forth each and every line.

And keep your eye on the line you were reading.
