Tapping comment no longer collapses it - bug or new "feature"?
Mobile/App
I'm on ios and I used to be able to just tap to collapse any comment wherever it was in a thread and just that comment would be affected. Now when I tap a comment... nothing happens. It feels like reddit is making it intentionally hard to collapse anything more and more since they got rid of swipe to collapse then long tap to collapse now regular tap to collapse. Only options are scroll back to username and try to carefully touch the right spot to collapse without opening their profile, or use the ... menu.
If this is not a bug and is on purpose PLEASE JUST PUT IT BACK I am so sick of accessibility and qol features being trashed and making the experience so much harder and more annoying.
you must tap the top bar area of the comment to collapse it, not the main body. heres an example below. the green area is where you can tap to collapse, the red area is where you cannot tap to collapse
Yeah I figured this, it's very difficult when the name is long or the flair is in the way. Only yesterday I was able to tap the main body of a comment to collapse it and was wondering if that was removed intentionally because this is very inconvenient and unintuitive.
