I know I would just like if it was a bit more lenient, I have an older phone and an otter box on it so getting it to register the exact edge is quite difficult for me sometimes.

It does, and it’s incredible how much of the native experience Wefwef gets right!

But I’d say this interaction could be even better is if there was a small threshold near the left edge of the screen where only the “slide to go back” gesture worked and the “slide to upvote/downvote”, didn’t.

There have been many times where I was trying to go back and ended up downvoting a comment instead because somehow my thumb didn’t actually reach the end of the screen.
