Third level swipe gesture #1177

On Sync for Lemmy, swipe gestures have 3 levels: Short, Medium, and Long (they call it first, second, and third swipe).

Would be nice for Voyager to implement another swipe level for both posts and comments. This will give us 50% more swipe options. Because, as one of our taglines says, "Tapping is meh".

@nanangp What would the third swipe level be? Somewhere between Normal and Later? Or further out?

nanangp commented 10 months ago

Bit further out. Empirically, on portrait, relative to screen width, 2nd level starts at around 25%, and 3rd level at 40% onwards.

Those measurements are only as accurate as my eyes, i.e. not very. I'm sure people will have their own personal preference anyway. I'm a big proponent of the scream test - just implement something that feels acceptable, and wait to see if anyone screams at you.
