Looks good.

I not sure if it's the right place for suggestions, and I know you didn't ask for any, but I hope you don't mind.

If possible, it would be great to have option to add custom instances, and to add the option to 'force' it to add the instance, even it the app thinks it's not a valid instance.

On Jebora and Lemmur, you can add only some of the instances (the app probably checks a list or smth). Both of them don't let you to add new instances.

Thanks in advace for your work man, really looking forward to it :)

E: some of the new instances

Duuuuude that would be amazing! Loving all the lemmy apps coming out!

[–] citizen67@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

So glad to see former reddit third party developers and apps rising to the occasion! I sincerely hope that the Infinity devs and other FOSS initiatives are coming onboard too.

I would give you a hand job on top of whatever the app costs. Slide was the best reddit app until it got abandoned. Slide for lemmy? I just jizzed my pants at the idea

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

All aboard the Lemmy train!

[–] 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

Yayyyyyyy! I am definitely paying for this when it comes out

Slide is the very first Android app that pulled me away from Reddit is Fun until Slide got abandoned. To see it resurrected for use on Lemmy would be a dream. I loved Slide interface. Was the app I preferred over Apollo too on Apple aside from the performance issues it didn't get sorted out before being abandoned, which led me back to Apollo.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

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

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

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

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

[–] cloudless@feddit.uk 0 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.

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

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

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I mean... What are the chances?! Unbelievable :D thank you, one tester eagerly awaiting :)

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

That's a great idea, thanks!

I'll wait for a FOSS app. Redreader supposedly will support Lemmy in the future.
