Dev Log: Things are happening in c/slide@feddit.uk

Extra notes for the techies; been kotlinifying the codebase as I go, its now mostly done, but vast swathes of the code in the original namespace needs serious redesign. There are some really great things in this, like I just came across the subsampling imageview which is a brilliant idea, but its undermined a bit by mindbogglingly bizarre things like using sharedpreferences to communicate the result of a folder chooser dialog. Notably, I've added some homegrown error reporting in this, that auto posts a github issue with stack trace on crash, which I'm real happy about, and I'm sure will get a battering once I tag a release

Dev Log: Things are happening (feddit.uk)
 

In case any of you are itching to know where I am with this, I'm still working on it; last few days I upgraded a few of the libraries to simplify the build process, and laid the groundwork for a modern app database so I can hook up the offline mode stuff, and some of the other pages more dependent on local data. I know its not very visible stuff though, so I've been holding off tagging a new version until I add at least one new feature. I could probably use some testing soon so likely I'll implement either posting, commenting, or the Go to Subreddit box for browsing to a specific community, unless there's something you want more?

[0.0.2] Second version, slightly less buggy than the last (github.com)
 

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...

First release, please be gentle! (github.com)
 

Just in time for the reddit apps to all die :) Notes are there, let me know how things go.

Question: would you guys rather I release a very beta version in time for the end of the month, or wait for something more solid? (feddit.uk)

I have a version that can log in (optionally), show posts of all media types, view comments and if youve voted, and today i'm going to add the ability to vote. So far, you cannot post or comment, but those are my next priority. You also cannot currently use any mode except "comment pane" view type, but that would be my priority after

I heartily reccomend LiftOff, until I can get Slide into a useable state :)

They have sure as hell raised the bar for what classes as "useable", anyway
