(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.
It is, or at least should be. The original source is here.
Same. It was the best Reddit app IMO.
I kept using it, until last week ^^"
Same, I emailed the Devs yesterday suggesting a Lemmy port. Guess they already had the memo and worked on it.
I don’t think it is, although that’s kind of the trade off with premium client apps
Where is all of this coming from??? Guys, Slide is FOSS, it’s under the GNUv3 license lmao
Oh I had no idea! I just assumed it was closed source because I had to pay to get the Pro version. Still an app worth paying for though
If you downloaded Slide off of the google playstore, the premium version was paid as a way to help support the dev. If you downloaded it off of F-Droid, or directly from Github, the premium features were free.
GitHub page says it’s open-source., this version we don’t know yet.
Can confirm, it’ll be foss, though the code is kinda horrifying :D
It’s copyleft, not permissive, so we do know it’ll continue to be Free Software.
Thanks for the correction.
Great! I’m currently using Jerboa, and it works, but something a little smoother would be nice.
oh really? yeah lets do this! I still have Slide installed on my phone, excited for Lemmy version
Slide was my favorite Reddit app! This is awesome.
I could not agree more! Slide is/was awesome, I used it exclusively for the last… well, 5 years min…
deleted by creator
Oh HELLS yes, this was the superior reddit app
Awesome! I was a long time Slide user before development stopped and I switched to Infinity
That would be awesome. Do you have any Git links to track progress? Thanks!
Yes please! even though jebora is nice. i would still prefere to swipe through the fediverse and customize the experience again
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
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.
YES! thank youu. That was my app for redditing. So glad the transition will be minimal with this
Heyyy, I made it to the screenshot!
Yes! This was my favorite app.
ohmygodohmygodohmygod
Slide along with Infinity are my fav apps for reddit
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!
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.
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.)
