SLIDE WAS THE BEST! It ran under the radar and the dev was MIA for a long time so I had to switch to Infinity but it was the best app I used for Reddit, soooo pumped to see Slimmey
I not sure if it's the right place for suggestions, and I know you didn't ask for any, but I hope you don't mind.
If possible, it would be great to have option to add custom instances, and to add the option to 'force' it to add the instance, even it the app thinks it's not a valid instance.
On Jebora and Lemmur, you can add only some of the instances (the app probably checks a list or smth). Both of them don't let you to add new instances.
Thanks in advace for your work man, really looking forward to it :)
E: some of the new instances
Slide is the very first Android app that pulled me away from Reddit is Fun until Slide got abandoned. To see it resurrected for use on Lemmy would be a dream. I loved Slide interface. Was the app I preferred over Apollo too on Apple aside from the performance issues it didn't get sorted out before being abandoned, which led me back to Apollo.
Duuuuude that would be amazing! Loving all the lemmy apps coming out!
OMFG! I love yoo!
I was still on slide until I decided to abandon reddit altogether. I can volunter myself to test.
Never used Slide myself, but I'm happy to see app ecosystem starting to grow aroung Lemmy! Way to go!
Ohh yes!! Here we go. Slide was the App that started my Reddit Addiction. Best interface imo. Used it till a few weeks ago.
Nice
Awesome! Where do we sign up for updates?
I mean... What are the chances?! Unbelievable :D thank you, one tester eagerly awaiting :)
If you arent aware, there is a community at [email protected]
Thanks for pointing it out! Was not aware.
Great minds think alike :)
I never used slide. What do people like about it?
The concept of swiping was used everywhere. Makes it quick and easy to use. You could just swipe right to close a thread, or the video/image. No need to use the back button, or reach for the tiny X in the corner.
And the seamless galley mode was awesome. Very unique (only found it quite similar in Joey).
Wow, I remember having slide like a decade ago, I think. That'd be absolutely beautiful.
So glad to see former reddit third party developers and apps rising to the occasion! I sincerely hope that the Infinity devs and other FOSS initiatives are coming onboard too.
can't wait to test it out.
Wonderful news. Thank you very much in advance!
Slide had been my favourite Reddit app.
Will you consider making Slide for Kbin? There seems to be numerous Lemmy clients being developed, but lacking for Kbin.
I'll wait for a FOSS app. Redreader supposedly will support Lemmy in the future.
