  • I’m glad you like it :)

    In iOS 26, there is a system-wide meaning to long pressing on the tab bar - it allows you to slide the selection bubble to a different tab. We decided to remove the long press gesture rather than override this system-wide behavior. We forgot to remove the setting associated with it, though; thanks for letting us know.

    It would be nice to retain some way to switch to the most recent account quickly, though I’m not sure what the best way to do that would be 🤔 Open to ideas.

    This would be cool.

    I did look into implementing something similar to this in the past, but there are some tricky UX problems associated with this design. Most prominently: if a user taps on a community link in a comment, what do we do? The intuitive option would be to slide a new page over both the sidebar and content panes, but unfortunately iOS only allows us to slide new pages over the rightmost pane. I might take a look at how Narwhal handles that 🤔

    At the moment, we are focusing on implementing support for iOS 26, and following that we’ll be working on support for Lemmy 1.0. I’d love to revisit this at some point, but we can’t make any promises on when that might happen.

    We’re open to contributions if anyone is interested in implementing something like this :)
