Would be nice to move it a little lower so it doesn't block the title while the post is loading, like Bacon or Sync. It might just be a low priority cosmetics change, but since it appears everytime a post loads, if I read 1000 posts, I have to look at it 1000 times. It drives me absolute bonkers. I already requested it twice, Ccrama told me the concern about breaking pull down to load code. I understand, I just post it here for record and hopefully one day you guys will get to it.
I'm not sure I understand what it is you mean. In your screenshot (first one), the progressbar is below the card. I could possibly fix this--but I don't know what it is you mean :P
The two screenshots are from Bacon and Sync. If Slide move the spinny icon lower, like Bacon/Sync, it won't block the title/photo thumbnail while the post is loading.
where do you see this progressbar in Slide? I'm not even sure I've encountered this.

Ah, I see what you mean. I'll see what I can do; shouldn't actually be that difficult. However, personally, I don't see the big deal.
I think it would look strange below the image, as it's not in the same place every time and the pull to refresh would be quite awkward. I think it's fine the way it is currently
Perhaps make it separate? Pull down to refresh still uses the same icon and spins at that same spot, but when the post is initially loading, use the simpler spinny icon for loading more comments, and place it below.
Just a suggestion. ;-)
^That's what I was thinking.
My suggestion follows the official Google apps, such as Keep and Gmail, its proper Material.
Gmail pull down to refresh, the pulled down circle spins:

Gmail when content is loading, shows a different spinny:

Anyway, its your app so I respect your decision. =) Thanks for the discussion.
Yeah I like that idea. I'll do that for the next update!
Done, now it's a horizontal bar!
Thank you so much ccrama =)
