Change what tapping on a comment does? (lemmy.ca)

I keep missing the vote buttons and accidentally tap on comments which then collapses them. I've accidentally collapsed/expanded some comments several times trying to vote.

Is there a setting somewhere I'm not seeing that changes this? Maybe to a long press or force needing to use the three dot menu to collapse instead.

I liked click and hold to collapse (Reddit app style when I left Reddit)

I don't understand click once to collapse and click and hold to hide the voting bar. Why is hiding the voting bar a thing?

It's more the other way around, some ppl prefered, having the bar collapsed by default. And then hold to reveal it

What about long press to expand/collapse the chain and tap to show/hide the bar? Personally, most of my miss-clicks are attempts to click a link in the body. This results in everything collapsing and then needing to click to expand before trying again. I think it would be less frustrating if a miss-click of this type resulted in just the bar collapsing or expanding which doesn't hide the link that was missed.

I prefer making the action fully configureable (like even setting to nothing), over having a swap action setting.

Agreed. I have never intentionally collapsed a comment but done so many times accidentally. For all I care collapsing could be removed entirely.

The tapping areas are, weirdly, super precise and not very intuitive or well explained. I would have gotten used to it but as a new user this was incredibly frustrating.
