I'm so excited to see my reddit app ported! Take my money!!

[–] Finkler 5 points 2 years ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 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.)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years 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] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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] 1 points 2 years ago

@theory

That's fantastic to hear. I've been a Slide user for years and would love to see Kbin supported as well, once it becomes more feasible.

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

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

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

All aboard the Lemmy train!

Nice. Now if only the Joey for Reddit dev decides to do 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

[–] exreddituser 3 points 2 years ago

When I became interested in open source software I started using Slide but then it slowly turned unusable. I tried many reddig apps and in the end settled for Infinity because it also is open source and it has nice UI (not as nice as slide). After all these years it brings me joy to see anything related Slide.

I'm here for it!

[–] Onurb 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] MacDougal 2 points 2 years ago

We may be excited

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

Oh yes. Oh baby. Slide is perfection and I have never witnessed such user focused ui.

It's usable without being pandering. I'm pretty much only off of reddit due to it no longer being an option.

[–] lulztard 1 points 2 years ago

Wow, I remember having slide like a decade ago, I think. That'd be absolutely beautiful.

[–] JohnDoe 1 points 2 years ago

I still use Slide daily and the thought of making a lemmy port did cross my mind, I'm eager to see the result

[–] semperverus 1 points 2 years ago

This is probably the best news I've heard all year. Thank you so much!
