I did a poll and nearly 30% of the people who voted said they used Sync! It's stayed around that percent the whole time too!

EDIT: Here is the poll I forgot to put this here like five times lol https://strawpoll.com/wby5A21R1yA

    Even if I’m not using Sync, I am happy that Lemmy has a great app that draws Reddit users, and a smorgasbord of apps to choose from.

      That’s probably why people are mad. I’ve seen lots of comments to the effect of they don’t want Redditors here because they’ll “ruin” Lemmy.

      Sync makes it harder for them to gatekeep.

        But isn’t almost everybody here people who left reddit, or even still use both? Or was there some invisible populace that didn’t use Reddit at all and suddenly decided to be active on Lemmy?

          As a former Redditor myself, I’m not going to be able to answer that question. I do agree, though: users don’t magically come out of nowhere.
