Swiping posts left and right for upvote/downvote
It has been a long time since I used Slide for Reddit, am I misremembering that there used to be a feature where you could swipe on posts and comments to up- and downvote them? Thunder, another android lemmy client, has that, I think Infinity for Reddit did too. Any plans to put that into Slide for Lemmy maybe?

I am curious - what would you use to go forward or back, as this is usually done by swiping?
That would be done by swiping from the edge of the screen. Swiping on posts is done more in the middle.
Infinity had that, but I don't remember Slide having it?
You're probably thinking of Sync. That was a big part of its features.
I just tried this on Slide for Lemmy and it doesn't seem to be a feature for posts or comments. Perhaps there is a setting somewhere but I don't remember ever seeing or using it.
Yeah, I was not 100% sure it used to be there, but its something I have really grown to like and it would be nice to see it in Slide for Lemmy.
Thunder is a good example where it works really well with two different swipe actions for each side, depending if you swipe a little or further out.
