I’ve just had the quickest of glances through the code. Is the gesture for opening the user switcher the only reason for reimplementing the tab bar? It sound’s like you’re rebuilding a lot of functionality that you get for free (iirc) with the native tab bar.

I like the collapse comment swipe idea, but imo it should collapse the whole top level tree a comment belongs to. We can collapse single comments be tapping, but there’s no way to quickly collapse the current top level comment and its replies.

This is something I think shouldn’t be specific to a single app. There’s an issue requesting this functionality on the Lemmy GitHub repo: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

If you are interested, it would probably be good to leave an upvote (👍-reaction on the first post in the issue thread) for that issue and maybe a comment detailing your specific use-case and any ideas you might have for how it should work.
