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
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 haven't been home browsing on my phone since it's been released. I'll hopefully be more active moving forward
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 don't know if Lemmy is more active now, but I do see some new accounts so there's that.
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 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.
I'm keen on using Lemmy now that it's clear to me that it's a solid alternative to Reddit.
Sync brought me here since it was my preferred way of using Reddit. Haven't really touched Reddit at all since the app shut down.
I have a sync-ing feeling you're right.
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 waited for sync and was siked to join once it opened up.
