Detail in the link. Crash reporting should make this a lot easier now though!

I recommend you use Obtainium to install this and other github-based projects, if you aren't already https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium

Also, I realise the apks are getting bigger, I'll fix that soon, there's libraries we don't need...

Thank you for porting slide to Lemmy!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Slide feels like coming home! When it slowly died, I tried ALL available apps for Reddit. First all open source, then free apps from the playstore. Only Joey was similar to Slide and had the same unique gallery mode (it's even better because it's remember the position of the last post shown).

So I'm happy and excited to see Slide coming back for Lemmy. Gallery mode is currently crashing the app, but I'm sure it'll be working soon. 😊

Can confirm gallery mode crashes app for me also. Had not heard of Joey. Will check it out.

Well I mean you're not gonna be able to check it out now I don't think...

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

Yeah I realised that after looking into it!

Hi, Firstly I would like to thank you for your work.~~I tried this app but after login my account it keeps crashing. Without login it lists all posts.~~

~~Here is the screen recorded video.~~ https://streamable.com/zhds7n

Got it working, i was using email in username field. Tried using username now and not its opening. Comments colapse not working as of now. Hope that works. Also after turning on community in tabs option(Setting > General > Display > View Type) set to Subreddit tabs, all posts only display Swipe navigation help screen.

Slide has been my go to Reddit client for years! So happy to see it live on in my new favorite site! Will we see an iOS version eventually?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately no, this app is pretty extremely android specific, and i also have no iOS devices to test with even if it wasnt

Permissions bug fixed!
I was prompted for permission 🎉
(Android 13)

In case it isn't known, some posts don't have an image in Slide when they should. E.g., https://programming.dev/post/331977

Also, upvoting a post doesn't update the upvote count until I click on the post to open it.

Still not logging in but I got an error message:

Capitalization may matter

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Just have it another go and it worked - it may be I was using auto-complete which leaves a trailing space on the end. Can you trim that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Just tried it and same error.

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

I was able to log in, view comments and vote. However, trying to view only one of my communities via the search bar crashed the app.

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

If I use the 'Go to subreddit' search and add a community from another instance the app crashes. Feel free to add this to the GitHub issues list if I don't get around to it soon.

You're the best!

Which apk do we install? Release or debug?
