1. A computer-implemented method for caching digital content, comprising:
accessing a social media platform through a client executing on a user device;
generating a feed comprising digital content;
causing display of the feed through a user interface on the client executing on the user device;
receiving a first gesture from a user, the first gesture comprising a swiping down motion, the swiping down motion comprising at least one of a long pull or an extended pull by the user;
indicating that the first gesture will result in a digital content caching request;
displaying two or more configuration indicators to further configure the digital content caching request, the two or more configuration indicators indicative of different amounts of digital content to be cached;
receiving a second gesture from the user based on the two or more configuration indicators, wherein a motion of the second gesture is transverse to the first gesture and a transition between the motion of the second gesture and the swiping down motion of the first gesture is discontinuous;
in response to receiving the first and second gestures from the user, caching the digital content of the feed; and
causing display of the cached digital content on the feed.
