(yes, i know there are a lot of things wrong with this screenshot)
If it is open source, then I'll test it for sure.

Same. It was the best Reddit app IMO.
I kept using it, until last week ^^"

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.
oh really? yeah lets do this! I still have Slide installed on my phone, excited for Lemmy version
Awesome! I was a long time Slide user before development stopped and I switched to Infinity

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.

Heyyy, I made it to the screenshot!
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.
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!

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

You had me at Slide.
That would be awesome. Do you have any Git links to track progress? Thanks!
was a bit apprehensive about sharing it, its really hard to describe how much of a challenge this codebase is. I'm constantly juggling refactoring for maintainability against just "getting something that works", but if you're interested, there you go

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!
Looks good.
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?

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