Ability to select and delete multiple objects from home tabs

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND

Ability to select and delete multiple objects from home tabs.

REAL WORLD USE CASES

Quicker and less convoluted way to delete objects.

2. Hold long to activate drag and drop

I recon we can do the same for the Objects on the home page?

See my comments here:

Drag-and-drop on blocks does not work reliably on some Android devices

Describe the bug On some Android devices, draging-and-dropping blocks after the changes made in Anytype Android 0.6.0 does not work reliably. Before the drag-and-drop changes, the functionality worked, albeit with too much sensitivity. One cause for this issue I suspect is modifying the “Long press duration” value in Android’s Accessibility settings from the default 500ms.
