(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.
oh really? yeah lets do this! I still have Slide installed on my phone, excited for Lemmy version

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
I’ll wait for a FOSS app. Redreader supposedly will support Lemmy in the future.
Slide was THE FOSS Reddit app WDYM
I believe Slide was FOSS, so i imagine this will be too.
Yayyyyyyy! I am definitely paying for this when it comes out
Slide was my favorite Reddit client. I’m glad it’s being resurrected to serve a greater purpose!
Yes! This was my favorite app.
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 along with Infinity are my fav apps for reddit
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’ve used Slide too. It was super intuitive and I’ve never had any issues with it at all!
Hands down the most/best customization. If anyone complains about the UI, it just means they didn’t tweak it enough!
Slide user to this day here. Love the customizability!
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.
If you arent aware, there is a community at [email protected]
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
