Hey Voyager users!

I added a new feature for Android users (does not affect iOS). It's currently available in beta. Basically, if you try to swipe back from home/all/local you will see a popup asking you to confirm:

collapsed inline media

This was added after a lot of feedback from Android users: https://vger.social/post/29745268

It's a configurable setting (General -> Other -> Confirm Back from Home/All/Local).

My question is: Should this be on by default? Or not? As an android Voyager user, have you experienced this problem where you accidentally swipe back to the communities list? Or have you not experienced this problem?

I personally never get into this situation for some reason. So having this on or not will have negligible effect on my experience either way.

However, if lots of others need this feature, I support it.

It seems harmless to those who don't need it, and helps significantly those who can benefit from it. Looks like an obvious net win from the UI standpoint.

I doubt this will increase bloat either, or make the code less maintainable.

So seems like a good feature? I would be OK with it being the default behaviour because I can use the icons/tabs on the bottom (double tap "posts") to explicitely jump to the community list when I want that. That's how I already use it anyway.

Thank you for this amazing app.
