    I think I got it, I must be too used to behavior from Apollo (it always ends up aligned to the top of the screen there).

    I also noticed a related issue. When you expand a long comment it shows the middle instead of beginning.

    I'll send a recording that shows both but I'd prefer to do it through testflight.

    I checked both just now and it does not really matter if it's the whole thread or just one comment. In both cases the one-line header for collapsed comment will move (i believe it's the middle of the screen?)

    Definitely not something that breaks the app entirely but a bit of unpredictable behavior, for longer threads / comments I need a split second to grasp where I ended up ;)

    This is a huge nitpick from my side but the comment collapse behavior seems to be off. The comment I'm trying to collapse changes position and I can't determine where will it end up.

    My first thought about a solution is this:

    • if comment header is visible, collapse it so it stays in the same place and the previous comment is intact as well
    • if comment footer (next comment header) is visible - collapse "downwards" so the next comment stays intact
    • if comment is long enough that both header and footer are out of the viewport, collapse to the place where user held their finger

    These are IMO more predictable than current behavior.

    Edit: here's an example of a long comment with unpredictable collapse/expand behavior https://tildes.net/~tech/1741/i_want_to_give_linux_another_shot_i_got_some_questions_am_looking_for_general_distro#comment-8xyz

    BTW huge congrats on the app, it's looking really slick even at this early stage!
