Description

The ability to multi-select and bulk edit posts came up during beta testing:

Bulk Edit: I couldn’t find the option to bulk edit posts like one would on PC. One should be able to press and hold to select multiple posts and delete, etc.

Research direction

Start with the requested Android behavior: press and hold to select multiple posts, then review the linked iOS issue for related context. Done means posts can be multi-selected and bulk actions such as deletion are available, but the payload names no Android files or tests to run.
