Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

I'm using Connect app too for now. Ateast until Sync for Lemmy is ready! Connect isn't terrible by any means. Though I haven't received a reply or DM yet so I'm not sure if background updates are working.

Liftoff app has been much better than Connect for me

Yup, I totally agree with this. liftoff works really well. Im waiting for Sync.

I've been juggling jerboa, connect, liftoff, and thunder while I decide which one I like best. For like 90% of things, it's liftoff, but some of my subscribed communities show as blank and I'm forced to use one of the others...

Same here, can't wait for Sync!
