I am scrolling All, I have scrolled a long way, and I tap on a post. 

Then I’m done, I tap < Back, and then accidentally tap < Communities

I end up on this screen: 

In Apollo, I used to be able to swipe the bottom of the screen to get right back where I am. 

In Voyager, I can only get back by tapping All in the list. 

I return to All, but I’m back at the top and lose my scrolling progress.

It is pretty annoying. I usually just take it as a sign to stop scrolling and go do something else 😅

That’s a positive workaround.

It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it’s very frustrating.

I use "hide read posts" + "mark as read on scroll" - that way when I come back to /all the feed starts from where I left off already or I just need to refresh and it will remove the already-scrolled content.

I may try this, but I’d prefer Voyager add the swipe feature (or something comparable like remembering where I was when I tap All).

Would be cool to have that feature. In the meantime hope these two settings help :)

This happens to me all the time, and it sucks.

I had to do it on purpose to make these screenshots, and I kept putting it off for months because I’m so annoyed by it.

Oh gawd same. I'll be eternally grateful, thank you for your service o7

I wish there was a way to just have the app ignore the back button when you're on the posts page.

Yeah, maybe it’s just a bad placement of the Communities button. I guess it could go under the All menu at the top center of the app instead.
