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.

I've spent countless hours on reddit on the reddit sync

I used lemmy fairly little because on mobile, the experience wasn't great.

Glad it's back. I'll probably be more active because of it ngl.

I've had Lemmy for months now but never felt like actually posting much because the clients were just not very good. I'll be posting more now that I have Sync, although the prices for premium versions are frankly obscene.

I was using Joey for Reddit and started browsing Lemmi since all of this Reddit API debacle began. Started with Jerboa but things were wonky and I never bothered to sign in. I think I'm going to enjoy Sync...so, hello world!

I thought posting from it wasn't working yet, so I can't see that it would be increasing activity.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Either way I'm loooooving sync. Way slicker than the other two I tried

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

I love Lemmys existence, I am devoted to Sync. The release guarantees I will be active daily moving forward.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

It's not necessarily more active but its more convenient to browse now.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

No I'm here now so it's more active. I just came today so you guys are in for a treat

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Pretty sure this will bring a ton on new activity. I, for one, feel right at home now.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

The dev also sent out a push notification to anyone that has the old Sync still installed

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Well, it makes it a lot more user friendly again! Was waiting for it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Er yes... That's why I'm here

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yep, I'm here because of Sync. I made an account beforehand but now I'm actually using Lemmy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

First good client, but I think it was pretty good before too.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

That's why I'm now here. I was waiting for Sync to be released. I bought the Ultra version to support the dev.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Also there's Infinity for Reddit.

I used Sync for reddit, and I've been using Connect for Lemmy. Is Sync for Lemmy better than Connect?

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.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Just wait and watch reddit... Now that 3rd party devs are unleashing stuff... This should take off. Hopefully joey app's lemmy rendition shows up as well! ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

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.
