If it is open source, then I'll test it for sure.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

It is, or at least should be. The original source is here.

Same. It was the best Reddit app IMO.

I kept using it, until last week ^^"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Same, I emailed the Devs yesterday suggesting a Lemmy port. Guess they already had the memo and worked on it.

Awesome! I was a long time Slide user before development stopped and I switched to Infinity

Oh HELLS yes, this was the superior reddit app

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Lovely. Slide was (is?) my Reddit app of choice. As an open source app, Slide and Lemmy would go together like peanut butter and jelly.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

oh really? yeah lets do this! I still have Slide installed on my phone, excited for Lemmy version

Heyyy, I made it to the screenshot!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Wow no way... Slide has always been my favorite 3rd party app, and I always felt like the only one using it when I'd mention it on reddit. What an awesome surprise!

Yes please, I just uninstalled slide last week. While some things would bug out ocassionally, I couldn't imagine using any other app with reddit. I'm on Jerboa now and its just not the same.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yayyyyyyy! I am definitely paying for this when it comes out

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Slide along with Infinity are my fav apps for reddit

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

YES! thank youu. That was my app for redditing. So glad the transition will be minimal with this

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That would be awesome. Do you have any Git links to track progress? Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yes please! even though jebora is nice. i would still prefere to swipe through the fediverse and customize the experience again

Awesome! I tried various 3rd party reddit apps over the years and stuck with slide the longest. Always liked its simplicity, ux design and focus on pictures. I'm an iOS user though, anything planned for that? (I'm on Mlem beta meanwhile.)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Fk yeaaaaahhhhhh! I can't believe it, we are getting slide and lemmur. Hope someone builds infinity for lemmy

Slide was my favorite Reddit client. I'm glad it's being resurrected to serve a greater purpose!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yes! This was my favorite app.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

When Slide died slowly I eventually switched to Joey, which is very close to Slide regarding usability. One thing Joey did better was zoomable videos. How cool is that!?

I really hope for a comeback of Slide as an Lemmy app!

Oh man I loved slide a lot. This is terrific.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

You son of a bitch I'm in.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Thank you so much! I tried several Reddit apps over the years and Slide was by far my favorite. I used it up until the blackout when I left Reddit for Lemmy.

When and where can we get this?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Looking forward to see what happens. Slide was my daily driver for many a year.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Looks good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Wow, that was fast. I love that there's a lot of interest in creating apps for the fediverse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I would give you a hand job on top of whatever the app costs. Slide was the best reddit app until it got abandoned. Slide for lemmy? I just jizzed my pants at the idea

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

You had me at Slide.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Slide is all I've used for so long I can't even remember different! I don't go on Reddit anymore, but I've been hesitant to actually uninstall Slide. Love to be able to use it here!
