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 definitely waited to set up my account for sync to come out. Im just most comfortable with sync, and familiarising myself with some other UI just to switch again when sync comes out seemed silly.

Got an alert on my recently installed Sync for Lemmy app that lemmy.world was down earlier, so maybe that's why.

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

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 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.

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.

Also there's Infinity for Reddit.

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!

I think lemmy.world had some downtime and they came back up. lemmy.world is one of the biggest traffic drivers.

I for sure have just created a Lemmy account now that Sync is here!

I'm certainly using Lemmy more!
