My only issue with Voyager is how many things are interacted with my swiping. I accidentally up/downvote posts all the time. I also have a problem where I accidentally go back by swiping from the left frequently, causing me to lose my place in the feed or having to reopen the post I was scrolling through.

I don't need to swipe for any of these functions when I have a back button and could just press a button on screen.

i think you can modify the swipe actions in the settings. and also set them to nothing.

Yep, Settings > Gestures they can all be customized or disabled completely

Oh this is really helpful! It doesn't solve the accidental closing of the feed, but not accidentally interacting is great.

It's a really nice feature, great customization. It would be better if there was some kind of popup that said something like 'would you like to change this?' But it's a work in progress and I really appreciate what the developer has done.

Same. I keep accidentally downvoting posts when browsing. For now I’m a fan of Thunder. Unique interface among a sea of Apollo lookalikes.
