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

[-] Shiroa@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

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

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

[-] Vulnicura@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Slide was my favorite Reddit app! This is awesome.

[-] Unimeron@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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!

[-] dakerDraws@pawb.social 2 points 2 years ago

Same. Slide was sooo good that I was sad to see it abandoned. Joey comes really close and I'd like to see that developer give Lemmy a shot.

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] SpecGeo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Slide along with Infinity are my fav apps for reddit

[-] humdrumgentleman@lemmy.world 3 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.

[-] GONADS125@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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!

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

Heyyy, I made it to the screenshot!

[-] Finkler@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] couragethebravedog@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

You son of a bitch I'm in.

[-] hummingbird@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago
[-] Routhinator@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Yes! This was my favorite app.

[-] abominable_panda@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] BloodyFable@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] databender@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Oh HELLS yes, this was the superior reddit app

[-] ShellSurf@kbin.social 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!

[-] NightOwl@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Yoz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] owatnext@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I miss Infinity. It was such an elegant app.

[-] Sterben@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

True, I was using it for 5/6 months, but before that I used Apollo for years.

To be honest I feel good about Lemmy, It just needs time to popolate.

[-] aaa@vlemmy.net 1 points 2 years ago

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.)

[-] Slyder@lemmy.world 1 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?

[-] TheCraiggers@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You had me at Slide.
