Feature Suggestion: Press-and-Hold Account Switcher (Like Mastodon / Moshidon)

Has Summit ever considered simplifying the multi-account interface by removing the extra profile image in the top right corner, and instead implementing a press-and-hold account switching feature—similar to what Moshidon (for Mastodon) does?

Currently, users can switch or manage accounts through the top-right profile icon, but this adds some visual clutter and requires extra navigation.


A cleaner approach might be to consolidate this into the existing bottom-right profile image, where:

Tapping the icon continues to open your profile main menu.

Pressing and holding it opens a popup showing all signed-in accounts, with options to switch, add, or remove accounts.


This would make the interface more intuitive, save space, and align with familiar gestures from other Fediverse apps.

Personally I don't find pressing and holding intuitive and I'd imagine it's actually not great for accessibility either but I can add this as like another way to switch accounts.

Fair Enough.

Thank you very much.
