When i press a parent comment it hides all child comment but then parent comment also becomes hidden. Please change this behavior. Comments shouldn’t hide for a single press . When you long press the parent comment it should only hide all its child comments. Parent comment should still be visible.
Excuse my ignorance, could you elaborate on what would be the benefit?
I did file a request for being able to collapse all comments above the current one until it leaves the parent visible. But collapsing all below would be non-intuitive to me.
Let me show you with pictures when tapping on a comment on each app:
Relay: Expanded and collapsed
Sync: Expanded and collapsed
Official: Expanded and collapsed
Jerboa: Expanded and collapsed
See the way only the comments disappear on the 3rd parties with an indicator on the side to show comments are hidden? And on the official app the comment goes to a small gray preview of the comment? The way Jerboa works now is closer to the Official reddit app, but has no context of the comment, like the Official reddit app. I think it should either 1) change the behavior to be more like the other 2 I show, or 2) keep it as is, but add context to the collapsed comment.
I would prefer option 1 because that is more intuitive to me, but I think that is because that is what I’m used to, and not because it is the “right” way of doing it.
