Do you cave and use both hands? Do you take the chance and try to use them one-handed when more actively using them? Or do you ultimately submit and get an accessory to kinda help, at least with keeping a hold of them?

a few other answers:
just use both hands, get an accessory, and/or balance on pinky and develop the toughest pinky imaginable
bonus:
find some smol phone you like and savor it for as long as it works
On an A32 4G if I’m on homescreen I can swipe down anywhere to open notifications drawer.
If I’m in an app though yeah, it’s top or nothing
I tried this, it just opens the “All Apps” menu despite having a dedicated button to do that enabled.
I get that when I swipe up, but not down. Maybe it’s a different launcher thing. I’m using Lawnchair.
I prefer keeping the default launcher.
