Comment on The Independent tries to hijack their reader's swipe meant to leave the site to send them further into it instead

That seems to indicate the proper swiping to go to the next article (right to left). Swiping left to right would close the article is the expected behavior for me.

What I hate is sites like AP News where if you swipe left to right to leave the site you instead go back a page and land on their carousel and have to hit back again. Fuck dark patterns.

That is also the proper swiping to go back in the browser this was being used in. More importantly, I was visiting this page from a Lemmy link and the only way to get out and back to Lemmy is to swipe from the outside of the screen inwards on my device.
