if you are just displaying comments probably u can just use Textview itself
(u can enable multiline and set text directly from
html Html.fromHtml(string) with some success.. you can try ) prob inside a
scrollview. if its just a few kb as Mark mentioned if its more than a kb or
so then its better to use listview.
My 2 cents will be to use listview if you think the comments will be larger
and more memory.

What if I use a String Builder to create just a giant TextView with

bad idea and take up more memory?
That depends on how many comments you have. If you have only a few KB of
comments, that's not bad. If you have a few MB of comments, that will be
bad.
Because I really don't want to have to revert to using the ListView.
Why not?
