It works for me but I disabled actions on the LTR swipe for now because I keep accidentally upvoting or downvoting comments when I try to swipe back to my feed. I noticed it takes a specific kind of swipe action for it to work and I need to get used to it to make it repeatable. I don’t upvote/downvote in the first place anyway, so I don’t mind disabling LTR swipe actions.
Turning off the gestures as noted make swiping back out of a post must easier!
Do you happen to have left-to-right swipe comment gestures enabled? There was a change in this latest update which adjusts some logic for this. If you have LTR gestures enabled, then you should be able to swipe from the left edge of the screen to go back. If you have LTR gestures disabled, then you should be able swipe from anywhere on the screen to go back.
If you are still having issues, please create a issue on GitHub so that it can be investigated further!
Ahh, it's only from the edge of the screen. At that point it's easier to use the Android back gesture, imo. Maybe it could be changed to allow swiping from anywhere when not on a comment? I don't know what the code looks like, implementing that might be kludgey.
Edit: Should it be working to swipe back if I swipe from the left edge on a comment, or should that still trigger gestures? Right now it's triggering gestures, which makes this change seem odd.
Still having a weird thing where if I swipe back a bit, then decide not to go back (release so that it doesn't go back), and try to again, it takes two attempts, but I assume that's normal.
I have the same problem but think I figured it out. If your finger is in the area that is 1/2 - 3/4” from the left edge, the app will grab the post and you can swipe out. Anywhere else will trigger the up/down votes.
Tried the suggested areas, can’t get it to swipe out since the update
It’s touchy. I laid a ruler on the screen to test various points before I found a spot that worked. The least frustrating work around for now is to turn off the swipe right gestures.
