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

For voting this will come along with customizable swipes (one option will be off): https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/64
Awesome. Thank you for the link. I rarely use GitHub but will make sure to follow voyagers updates there
There is also a release notes link next to each update, which I personally find more convenient
yes please, there also seems to be a bug in safari where if you accidentally start to swipe, even a tiny bit, it stops the rest of the page from scrolling.
You need to wait a second without interaction. This is a safari bug
Wow this is a bug reported in 2021 and Apple doesn’t seem to give a shit.
I keep coming back to Memmy because of this even though I prefer voyager UI. I thought I would wait the « freeze bugs » are solved by the developer but this is a lot worse, it can’t be fixed.
Not sure which app I’m going to use in the future…
It'll get fixed in iOS 18.2 or something and every device running something older will simply be stuck forever with a broken Safari.
I use to report bugs in older versions of iOS that caused problems on my devices, and they would usually not get fixed until an entirely new version of iOS was released.
For example, the App Store in iOS 6 will crash 100% of the time when viewing your Purchase History if you have too many items. This was reported to Apple several times by different people. I believe it was fixed in iOS 7. Which was great for the iPhone 3GS that was forever stuck on iOS 6 and would never get the fix.
Oh damn. Haven’t noticed before. Just replicated it like 3 times. Annoying bug
Oh my god yes, I only ever use this “feature” accidentally when trying to navigate backwards.
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.
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.
