Feature request: Horizontal swipe for next/previous post in feed

I would love this as an option for navigating between posts, and I'm surprised that most Lemmy apps don't have this.

Joey for Reddit had this feature, as does the official Reddit app. Connect for Lemmy has this feature, and Boost for Lemmy doesn't show the comments in swiping mode. Eternity is the only Lemmy app which does it properly so far, but development has fallen behind in other areas.

Would the Thunder devs consider implementing this feature? It would probably win me over!

Originally proposed for Thunder here
Github issue here: Issue #1320
Dependent on Issue #1363, merged last year.

Eternity has had this navigation option for a while now, and Summit recently implemented it as well.

Any progress on this feature? Any outstanding issues or technical limitations preventing its development?

Hey there!

The good news is that there's no outstanding issues or technical limitations preventing this feature from bring implemented!

The main thing is allocating time to implement this in. I'm currently backed up working on some under-the-hood changes for the next version of Lemmy. Once that's done, I'll have more time to work on the existing feature requests.

Thanks for the reply! Glad to hear that there aren't any technical limitations.

Makes sense to prioritize the breaking changes for Lemmy 1.0, even if its not as visible/exciting. Thanks for all the work that you do!
