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.

    I call it plausible. The Sync UI is considerably more efficient than the Lemmy web UI. And many of us refugees were 3rd party app users and some of us were Sync users. I have been commenting more since this morning. Surely I am not alone in that?

      And Sync in general is far more feature-rich than all the other Lemmy apps I’ve tried. Connect for Lemmy was the closest with its swipe to upvote mechanic, but it feels very nice to be at home again.

        Honestly it’s so awesome just having the feel of it back. I remembered why I never bothered with reddit on the PC, trying to bumble around Lemmy gave me a similar ew lol.

        Thunder also has swipe gestures on posts/comments for upvote/downvote/reply etc, but I hate that I can’t swipe to go back when scrolling comments.
