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 used it for years on that other site, so when it came out for lemmy it felt like coming home. Not sure how much is just muscle memory and being used to it, but the design and interface are really well done.
