Swipe on bottom bar to go back to previous position
Is Your Feature Request Related to a Problem?
Sometimes I accidentally leave a thread and want to quickly come back to my exact position in the thread but its not possible
Feature Description
It would be great to have the feature we had on Apollo where we could swipe left to come back to our exact position in the previous thread we had open. Swiping right would leave the thread and go to the feed screen basically working how a Back and Forward button works on web browsers
here's a screen recording of Apollo with the feature

Keep in mind that any new swipe gestures would interfere with the post gestures, so you'd have to turn those off (similar to how you have to turn off left-to-right swipe gestures on comments if you want that gesture to navigate backwards).
It's not your exact request, but I am working on an implementation that preserves your place in the comments. You'd have to click on the exact post again but you wouldn't lose your spot.

Awesome! Will it be an option to use it for swiping if the current ones are disabled? I already have the button to see the other communities do don’t need the gesture too

We can keep this issue open for that request!
Swipe on bottom bar to go back to previous position
For this, do you mean swiping anywhere on the screen, or specifically swiping on the bottom navigation bar?
For example, swiping to the left on the bottom navigation bar to bring you back to the last opened post. If you do mean the bottom navigation bar gesture, then it would only be possible to do it from the feed page (as the post page doesn't actually show the bottom navigation bar)
specifically swiping on the bottom navigation bar to go back to the last opened post and to the location you were at in the comments
