The update is great but for gestures I’d love a way to keep swiping right to upvote/downvote/etc but allow any swipe left to go back (a la Apollo). Right now you have to disable all swipes to be able to “swipe anywhere to go back”.
Also I would love to be able to swipe right on the main feed to go back to the last comment feed I was drilled into. I miss that feature so much from Apollo.
Good point! I will double check the gestures, to see if I can make it work that only part of the gestures need to be disabled to get full swipe to go back.
As for swiping the other way to go forward; I would absolutely love to implement this, since this was also one of my favourite features. But this isn’t native behaviour and means I’d have to implement my own navigation logic from the ground up. The harsh reality is therefor that I don’t see this happening in the near future :(
Quick update: I looked into the option to have full swipe to go back while only disabling left swipes, but this doesn’t seem to be possible.
Looks like this is a limitation of React Native, because as soon as I enable full swipe to go back, it blocks any other swipe gestures.
I’ll keep it on my list to look into further, but I don’t expect that I’ll fix this anytime soon. Probably not the news you were hoping for, but I figured that any update with regards to this feature request would be useful (:
Thank you for looking into it.
