Same with making a post. I accidentally cancel making a comment all the time while simply trying to select text.

Like this:

I select some text and them try to drag that little blue tear drop on the left to change the selection and invariably just close the comment editor. It's so frustrating.

I have all gestures disabled because all they do is fire by accident, but I can't see any way to disable this one.

Here is a screenshot of it in action. I turned on the developer option to show touches, and you can see how wide the activation area is for dragging from the left.

Yeah, it always saves a draft. I'm on Android, and I use the 3-button navigation and not gesture nav.

I'm also using 3 button navigation on Android. I've tested it on a Pixel 8a running GrapheneOS and some Motorola device running stock OS. It's hard to say for sure, but it looks like the edge of the activation zone on both of my devices is roughly the same as yours, so I'm not sure why I don't run into the issue more often. Sorry I can't be more help.
