„In Apollo, there was a really intuitive feature that let you disable the gestures for voting/replying/etc. If you did so, then you could use the entire screen to navigate between posts instead of needing to swipe all the way from the side.“

I took this screenshot and quote from a request from another app (thanks @Carnelian). I think this app is also missing this and I think it is one of the highest quality of life features.

(I hope posting it like this is okay)

    I’d appreciate this feature, but only because the back-swipe target area in wefwef feels smaller than on a native iOS app. I’m constantly voting accidentally instead of going back, and I didn’t have this problem in apollo even with swipe voting enabled

    Also the feature to swipe left to go back to a previous page you may have accidentally closed. Loved that.

    I keep upvoting people by accident trying to go back lol.

    This feature can’t come fast enough, for someone with small hands I can’t reach the top left of my screen easily.

    This feature is what got me to pay for Apollo early. I upgraded to lifetime ultra later. Wefwef has stepped in and filled the Apollo void quickly and for that I am grateful. I agree, this would be a huge step to recreating the feel that I have grown to love.

    Thank you devs for everything you are doing.

    I would like to have this feature. Many times I have accidentally upvoted/downvoted a post/comment when I was just trying to swipe back to the previous page.
