Oh I see. Would’ve expected collapse thread swipe option to collapse all child comments of the specific comment that is swiped, not entire thread from top-level.
Hmm, the name might not be the best. Any suggestions? Needs to be somewhat short too
Haven given it some more thought, I think the issue is, that what I was looking for was specifically “take me to the next top level comment”. Not “collapse current thread”. In actual effect, it doesn’t make much difference. Nevertheless, it is like taking a detour to get to the destination.
Perhaps both (collapse thread; jump to next top-level comment) could be swipeable options?
Maybe a floating button, visible when viewing posts with comments, could be seen when “jump to next” hasn’t been chosen as a swipe-option? That way, the option will be clearly in place out of the box, but won’t be an eyesore for those who have set up a swipe for the action?
I’d say the name is apt and descriptive, once you realize it does exactly what it purports to do. It’s just different than what has become the norm (in the Reddit and Lemmy apps that I have used).
