Unless anyone knows another reason for this impressive increase in comments? Seems to roughly coincide with Sync launching. If thats the case, just goes to show the importance of good third party apps.

EDIT: Looks like a confusingly labeled graph and I think this is total comments. I have no idea why that spike could exist though.
Sync was Reddit for me. So when Reddit decided to end all 3rd party apps, it was also the end of Reddit for me. Now with Sync for Lemmy it feels like I can pick off exactly where I left off and it feels great. Maybe even slightly better, because it feels like more people are interested in the comments you write and more of them interact with you.
Agreed wholeheartedly.
And like someone posted about we’re not constantly policing ourselves with /s because the folks here are adults. On reddit it had gotten so vitriolic I didn’t post often because someone was going to jump you for having a differing opinion or to express their faux outrage that you liked cheese on broccoli or whatever.
