I don't know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there's a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

Anecdotally, it became much more active when Reddit switched the API a month ago. The existence of https://old.lemmy.world/ later also helped probably.

I definitely used Lemmy a lot more today than I normally do. Sync for Lemmy is just so much more polished than everything else I have tried using to access Lemmy previously.

I was waiting for it lol

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I created an account as soon as I got a notification from the Play Store about it being available to install.

I mean, having a good client for an app is the first step to get users lol

I use liftoff now. Is sync an improvement? I find switching between instances to be a bit clunky and having accounts with different instances leads to lots of repeating posts.

I haven't been home browsing on my phone since it's been released. I'll hopefully be more active moving forward

I was on Lemmy 2 months ago and haven't been back since. Using Firefox on my phone was just too slow for someone who was spoiled by Baconreader on Reddit.

With Sync, I think I'll come around more often.

I don't know if Lemmy is more active now, but I do see some new accounts so there's that.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yep. For me it's got me using Lemmy more... I hope that more communities from reddit start to move over.

Joined because of Sync and I like it, it's easy to use, smooth and neat because it's customizable to my liking. Amazing job

I have a sync-ing feeling you're right.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Since i was able to import my settings backup from sync for reddit, I'll be here more often

Relay for Reddit, my last holdout for 3rd party reddit apps, has finally fallen. Here's to hoping the Relay dev can come up with a lemmy version. Jerboa keeps breaking with spell check.

Sync has made my experience better and I myself have been more active. Wouldn't be surprised if having a better interface causes more interaction. I think it's great! Feels like I'm back on Reddit again!

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It's the superior interface. People now love interacting with the app and lemmy
