Side Gestures and Gesture status Bar

This has been mentioned by someone else and it got downvoted for some reason, but the gestures in Android 10 really mess with how you use the app. Changing the app for everyone would be silly, but perhaps an alternative could be added in the settings for opening the side hamburger menus with a double tap on the side of the screen. The issue will effect minimal users for now but as android 10 becomes more prominent the issue will compound. The other thing which is small, is making the gesture status bar at the bottom of the screen transparent, google posted how to do this and its just a couple lines of code that makes the app far more attractive to use because currently in dark mode the bar at the bottom is set to white.

In the iOS App, you can pull the menus out (left and right menu) by swiping in the middle of the screen. I don't know why they did not include that in the Android version. Also, depending on the phone (I have the OnePlus 7t), disabling gestures also removes a-lot of the new functionality of closing apps. It's a catch-22, do I want the nice new gestures that comes with Android 10, or do I want the ease of using Discord.
