If swiping right closes a thread, swiping left should bring me back (wirebase.org)

Title. I accidentally close threads halfway down the comments and can't get back to where I was. I'd rather have the gesture disabled if it's too much work to hold my spot (I'm on Android, where back is built into the OS unlike iOS)

This always deceives me as well. I don't like using gestures for things anyway, so truth be told I'd really like a setting to just disable it, but I agree with you if it is enabled then it should work in both directions.

    Yes, please let us disable gestures entirely. I get so frustrated with them, especially as it seems exceptionally touchy - if I'm scrolling down and my finger drifts diagonally even the slightest bit, poof. I'm no longer happily reading comments, I'm now irritatedly trying to get back to where I was.
