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.
I was skeptical when people were saying "just wait until sync launches". I've been using Lemmy since the blackout and feel like there has been a noticeable jump in the quality and quantity of comments in the last few days. I'm not actually a fan of the app (Voyager and Summit are my favourites, Summit has the edge just now), but whatever the reason I'm pretty happy.
