I've used Lemmy more in the past 12 hours than I have in the past month since signing up. All because of Sync. (self.syncforlemmy)

Yeah im honestly starting to question if its all organic, as its trivially easy to artificially inflate posts, and we even had a post the other week warning exactly of app developers could manipulate votes to get more people to use their platform and make purchases.

I would say its mostly organic since a good amount of discussion is negative feedback about ads and the paid tiers.

I'd believe it's organic tbh, I was waiting for Sync or Boost to drop before I fully took the plunge. There are probably many others like me for whom those apps and others defined the Reddit mobile experience and the other apps for Lemmy (or the ones I used at least) weren't as feature rich so it's an easy choice to make.

There are clearly a lot of bots posting links but that's not that different from reddit either. The real friends were the comments anyway.

I've been using sync for reddit for years, and I used Vanced to keep sync for reddit working even today. I was interested in trying lemmy ever since it was announced that the popular third party apps were going away on Reddit. I might have started using Lemmy earlier if it wasn't for being able to still use Sync for Reddit and knowing that Sync for Lemmy was coming out very soon. Now that sync for Lemmy is here, so am I.
