Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

    Also, liftoff kinda sucked, but I just figured out some features of Sync, and it’s fucking beautiful.

      Lol what? Liftoff is fantastic, and FOSS. Are we blaming liftoff for the downward trend/lack of growth? Cause the oh-so-amazing Sync does not seem to have reversed it, to spite all the claims I keep seeing.

        You’re not missing anything but ads. I cannot understand the Sync hype and attribute all posts about it to promotion.

          I paid for Apollo, and I’m happy to support developers, but in app ads is a big no.

          Connect for Lemmy is basically Sync free. It’s got the same swipe gestures and everything. I’m not sure what people are so blown away by.

            Not by a long shot. Connect is good, don’t get me wrong, but Sync has some major points that others usually just completely gloss over or ignore entirely–including Connect.

            Like tablet-friendly UI.

            And no, Infinity, “tablet-friendly” does not mean like 5 columns of independently scrolling content which take you to one big comment section which is a mobile UI stretched to screen size.

            Tablet UI–let alone good, productive tablet UI like Sync has with pagination and all–is always overlooked.

              Not sure what you mean, this is what sync looks like for me on a big screen. Hardly tablet friendly.

              Connect looks much better for me

          Unsure what is going on but I’m using Sync, haven’t purchased anything, and haven’t seen a single ad.

          Hope it continues as I like the app.
