I would love to be able to disable right swipe like you could do in Apollo so you don’t up/downvote comments by mistake meaning it’s the gesture is solely used to go back.

For voting this will come along with customizable swipes (one option will be off): https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/64

Yeh, the hitbox for upvoting is way to close the the left hand side of the screen. The hitbox for upvoting should be moved into the centre of the screen, with a larger hitbox for going back.

Would be nice to have the option to have swipes navigate backward and forward too. I’ve been throwing out downvotes like candy lmao.

Oh my god yes, I only ever use this “feature” accidentally when trying to navigate backwards.

I want this option at an OS level

How so? You don’t swipe from the left side of the screen to go back?

I don’t think I have ever used the back button. I don’t think it’s ergonomically placed at the top left of the screen

I meant that I’d love to disable all swipe gestures so that all scrolling and backward navigation is flawless. And I simply don’t have a good enough memory to remember all the gestures these apps use.
