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 have found myself using Lemmy a lot more in general since Sync. Much better than all of the other apps imo.
See, I know what you're saying when you refer to it as a third party app, but this isn't reddit.
Sync is not a third party app because we don't have any real parties to speak of. Sync is equal to Lemmy as any other client! That's the beauty of decentralization!
Sync's a really smooth experience, I'm enjoying it. Hopefully moderator tools will be back soon, that's one of the biggest weaknesses of the Lemmy app space right now.
Mastodon used to be my main social media platform for some time and I have been slowly getting on Lemmy. But I have been using it a lot after the launch of sync.
I've definitely commented more since the launch of sync than in the whole month before. But it's not just that, also the quality of content here has improved over time, and it coincided with the launch that there was seemingly more to talk about.
That's not the number of daily comments, it's the total number of comments, by day.
So on day X there were totally Y comments on Lemmy.
The big jump is probably related to some instance adding a bot that copies content e.g. from Reddit.
Wonder when Apollo is going live, that should be another significant bump.
I don’t think it’s sync, I remember seeing this jump a few days before sync launched. Seems like it’s something else. I would bet it’s bots, but there is no evidence for this I’m aware of.
