Back button should be longer

The back button is one of the most used buttons on the program. You can alternatively click on "Home" in the sidebar, but then you will lose your timeline position. Having to aim for the the tiny "<" button is annoying. I don’t know if this is current Plasma HIG, saw this in several other KDE programs like Dolphin and Gwenview, but this doesn’t change that this small but highly frequented button is simply bad UX. In Dolphin and Gwenview it’s at least possible to edit the toolbar buttons and name the button, so that it will be longer. Tokodon doesn’t have such a toolbar menu.

My suggestion: Make "< Discussion" a button. Then you can click on the whole area of the word and get back to your timeline.

This seems like a reasonable usability request

Totally, I'm pretty sure this has to be changed upstream in Kirigami but I'll keep it here until I can action on it

Moving this to Kirigami
