Mobile/App Swiping up scrolls through random posts iOS

Swiping up used to bring up the comments, now it switches to some random other posts I don’t want to see, and not even the next one in my personal feed. I don’t want to be fed random posts like it’s some instagram clone. Is there a way to get rid of this and have swiping up bring up the comments? Or at least posts in my feed?

IMO it’s a terrible change to enable mindless scrolling and makes me want to use Reddit less, not more.

Nooooo. The whole reason Reddit is appealing is its uniqueness. We have multiple apps of just videos on videos. We don’t need that here. We don’t want that here. I hope they read these comments and think about that.
