 Hello,

 One common issue many WordPress users have pointed out is the absence of
 pinch-to-zoom functionality within the Gutenberg core lightbox on mobile
 devices. This limitation negatively impacts the mobile user experience,
 making it less intuitive and convenient.

 As someone interested in helping WordPress users by answering their
 questions, I’ve noticed this is a frequent concern among the community.

 If possible, adding this feature could significantly improve the mobile
 usability of the Gutenberg editor.

 Thank you for your attention and efforts to improve WordPress.
