Disabling Side Swipe Gestures

Is there a way to disable the side swipe gestures to prevent from having open apps like Facebook, or a browser from go back?? It is incredibly aggravating when I'm quickly scrolling, and the page goes back, and then I have to return, starting all over again from what I was scrolling.


And in case someone recommends it, NO! I have no interest in the Guided Feature in Accessibility because it's equally, if not more aggravating.


I have the iPhone XS Max, iOS 14.4.1
