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.

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!

You know I did actually question myself when I wrote that haha, but I went with it anyway.

I mean the definition could still probably apply though perhaps under the logic that the developer has nothing to do with the development of Lemmy. He is just a third party to it. The lack of a first party doesn't change that Sync is a third party, maybe...

Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things.

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.

Same bro, here's a useless Kbin upvote that most peple can't even see.

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.

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.
