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.

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!

[–] dakerDraws@pawb.social 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] wasabi@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

Awesome! I was a long time Slide user before development stopped and I switched to Infinity

[–] yote_zip@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] SandboxScience@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That would be awesome. Do you have any Git links to track progress? Thanks!

[–] Onurb@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yes please! even though jebora is nice. i would still prefere to swipe through the fediverse and customize the experience again

Oh HELLS yes, this was the superior reddit app

[–] GONADS125@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years 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!

[–] house_of_questions@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] GONADS125@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] emberwit@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Slide user to this day here. Love the customizability!

[–] SolarNialamide@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years 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.

[–] theory@feddit.uk 1 points 2 years ago

If you arent aware, there is a community at !slide@feddit.uk

[–] M_Reimer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (9 children)

If it is open source, then I'll test it for sure.

[–] Shiroa@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

It is, or at least should be. The original source is here.

Yes! This was my favorite app.

[–] Yoz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] owatnext@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I miss Infinity. It was such an elegant app.

[–] Sterben@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

True, I was using it for 5/6 months, but before that I used Apollo for years.

To be honest I feel good about Lemmy, It just needs time to popolate.

[–] BloodyFable@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

SLIDE WAS THE BEST! It ran under the radar and the dev was MIA for a long time so I had to switch to Infinity but it was the best app I used for Reddit, soooo pumped to see Slimmey

[–] Vulnicura@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Slide was my favorite Reddit app! This is awesome.

[–] SpecGeo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Slide along with Infinity are my fav apps for reddit

[–] Onurb@lemmy.world 1 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.

[–] ToNIX@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Awesome! Where do we sign up for updates?

[–] TheCraiggers@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You had me at Slide.

[–] Slyder@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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?

[–] De_Narm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.
