Hello! I've been loving Thunder, but one usability feature I've brought over from my days of using Slide (for Reddit) is swiping right (or up, in some cases) to dismiss the post view and return to the feed. This doesn't work where there are comments, of course, thanks to swipe actions, which I am loving, but it worked on space under them and on the post content itself until the latest update. Is this intended behavior, and will it be coming back? Swiping out of the post creation view still works, which leads me to believe this is generally supposed to work in Thunder.

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.
