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'm surprised that sync had such a major impact. Still happy that it did.
It wasn't because of Sync. The increase happened before Sync for Lemmy was even available. Notice how it jumped up and then didn't rise again? Probably a dodgy instance federated.
