I don’t know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there’s a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

Sync makes Lemmy feel like a better version of Reddit, or an old school version of Reddit. It’s great for Lemmy and old Reddit users.
I definitely feel the same way. I had been on Reddit since before the Digg collapse. Back when it was mostly nerds and other IT professionals like myself. Lemmy gives a strong wave of nostalgia. Sync for Lemmy makes it a pleasure to use on a tablet. The webpage is alright, definitely serviceable. But Lemmy has strength in the third party apps scene. Sync is the returning champion for my Android tablet. Happy to support his work again.
Was just describing this to family today. I don’t know how many times I started to comment on Reddit, only to discard it because I didn’t want to deal with the Reddit brain. Lemmy feels like old school Reddit where engagement is good again.
I will definitely be more active as well, there was no app with this much customization. Now that there is much more people will find exactly what they want.
