Is there any way to collapse comments and their children in the interface? Seems like a fairly basic feature but I can’t find it.

    Like @psyspoop said, touchpads can be prone to accidental collapses. Maybe setting the touch target to be on the “header” of the comment (the whitespace between the username and the upvote/downvote buttons) could be a good compromise?

      TBH that’s not too hard to do, but it goes back to the whole mobile friendliness :(

      IMO i think the upside of mobile friendliness outweigh the times people accidentally tap on touchpad, and i personally think just having the header being a touch target is a little too small for mobile users… so i prefer the whole comment being a target

      obviously if folks disagree heavily i could probably adjust but i’m curious what @ernest thinks

        What if there was an option somewhere to switch between the two? Mobile users could keep the full comment collapsing, and web users could switch to header-only collapsing.
