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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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.

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] 1 points 1 year ago

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

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.

OMFG! I love yoo!

I was still on slide until I decided to abandon reddit altogether. I can volunter myself to test.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a great idea, thanks!

@[email protected], I'll be happy to help with testing too.

Ohh yes!! Here we go. Slide was the App that started my Reddit Addiction. Best interface imo. Used it till a few weeks ago.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 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!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I stopped using it because apparently it had been abandoned by the dev, and switched to Infinity because it's extremely similar, but I loved Slide too. Will definitely use this.

I've used Slide too. It was super intuitive and I've never had any issues with it at all!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hands down the most/best customization. If anyone complains about the UI, it just means they didn't tweak it enough!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Slide user to this day here. Love the customizability!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Awesome! Where do we sign up for updates?

I mean... What are the chances?! Unbelievable :D thank you, one tester eagerly awaiting :)

Thanks for pointing it out! Was not aware.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Wonderful news. Thank you very much in advance!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I will! So far, the reason for that is thst Kbin doesnt expose any kind of API, so any app has to scrape the site, but I would definitely aim for dual compatibility eventually, especially once an API exists

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

I'll wait for a FOSS app. Redreader supposedly will support Lemmy in the future.
