This is one of my major annoyances with the app. The communities sidebar will often seemingly open itself whilst I am scrolling on /all and then there is no way to return to where you were.

I have all gestures switched off that I can find so I don't even know why it suddenly decides to open itself when my thumbs are no where near the navigation bar at the bottom either.

This happens to me everyday!

As far as I have worked out there is no way to return to where you were before.

Happens to me all the time.

Been happening to me for over two years. I use Voyager because it can filter my home feed from my all feed, but I also use Jerboa and Blorp, but I haven't found any filter like Voyagers, buut, neither Jerboa or Blorp are subject to the back button taking you right out of your place in the feed, they display the communities different so that doesn't happen.

In Apollo, you could just swipe from the right side of the screen to go back to where you were (this also works between a Post and the feed as well). It was a great feature I used every day. It doesn’t seem to work on Voyager though. Definitely miss that feature.

The thing is, when reading a post you do not just accidentally open the communities menu. In the beginning I thought too I tapped the back button twice, but after more than a year using Voyager daily, I can say it just happens from time to time. It is really frustrating. This is not the first bug report regarding this issue and I guess the Dev has it on his list, but it seems hard to fix, idk

Strange, we have 4 peoples for whom it’s happening way too often, meanwhile I barely even see the communities sidebar and I really have to look for it.

I’m also unable to open this sidebar when I’m on a post.

I’m on iPhone, if that helps. Are you all 4 on android and this could be some sort of different gesture between the two OS?

Or, kinda dumb hypothesis, are you all left handed? The communities button is on the top left so maybe scrolling with your left hand makes it more prone to touch that button?

I’ve heard of the double back bug (from a post it goes back to the communities list in one swipe) but I’ve never been able replicate it myself.

It anyone has good replication steps please lmk!

I just installed voyager on a new phone (Android /e/OS). I tapped the app switcher button in the bottom right corner. The menu opened as the app switched. I have not been able to repeat this.
