Edit: my bad. I swiped too far. A short swipe worked. Thanks @derelict@derelict@lemmy.world and others in comments
Just want to confirm before raising an issue on github
Replying to comment was working for me then it stopped working. I tried to swipe as much as I can from right to left, almost reaching my left side of the screen but nothing happened
Same issue whether Swipe Gesture setting was on or off. Swipe to upvote/downvote works
The trick is to only swipe far enough that the icon is uncovered plus a little bit. So maybe an inch to inch and a half of the blue showing. Then release. If you try to swipe the whole way it doesn’t work.
