On the Lemmy specific front, Active daily users seems to still be stabilising following the exodus from elsewhere, Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise though – promising stats all in all.

Hell yeah. Special shout-out to Sync for Lemmy for reeling me back in as a daily user.

I just came from Reddit, and I hear a lot about Sync. Anyone willing to let me know what it is and how it is important to Lemmy?

Thanks, so it seems like those apps that were going to be charged for the API have a place to transition to. Nice!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Exactly. The other end of it is that a lot of the app-specific advanced functionality made the transition for Day 1 - unless Infinity/else has some tricks i'm unaware of, its currently the most customizable/feature complete app - actual tablet modes, foldable support, biometrics for subaccounts, user painting/tagging for sub accounts, profile backups so you can carry customizations to other android devices - etc.

Its all auxiliary & definitely not required, but losing these features made Lemmy a no-go on mobile for me. It's also missing some real basic stuff like mod tools & the ability to make posts at all, but i've used the app for a decade & the dev is quickly pushing fixes/new features out the door.

I've been having to watch my social media usage again. Which is bittersweet.

Haha, I'm right there with you. I'm off Twitter & Reddit, I had no alternatives until Sync came back...

It had taken me so many years to break my reddit addiction, then my friend introduced me to lemmy, and it's been downhill ever since 🥲
