How do you use the swiping to up/downvote effectively? (self.thunder_app)

Maybe it's just me but the swiping to up/downvote is incredibly frustrating to use. I find myself accidentally downvoting often. My other issue is that the votes don't register immediately, so most of the time I can't tell whether I didn't swipe far enough or if it didn't register yet and end up probably swiping 5 times before giving up.

Am I using it wrong? Are there plans to allow for buttons in the future?

Otherwise I am really digging the client. Would like it if the community name was highlighted in a different color when scrolling all too, but otherwise it's great!

Personally, I absolutely ADORE the swiping.

If you hold, you can control the swipe action more clearly. I hope that helps.

But the delay is most likely the kinks we have to work through while they build this app. I know it can get frustrating some times, but this is an app that is currently in development. Telling myself that helps tremendously with my patience using it.

Though, I have not had too much trouble that has severely tested my patience as of yet.
