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.
Not really? They won short term. In a couple years most of their content will be reposts and bot comments.
It sounds like they’ve won, and sure the people in charge might catch a payday, but once the Fediverse gets more user friendly (which is happening at a rapid pace), and more of the long term reddit creators move over here, their platform will die.
They have restricted which apps you can use, they are trying to make it so you can’t use the mobile site, they’ll eventually kill old.reddit. I guarantee they’ll implement some sort of subscription service so you’ll have to pay to be apart of a community, etc.
Once the porn creators leave and come here, then reddit will start dying
It’ll just be digg again pretty much lol. Just bot memes stolen from here or people struggling to let go of a dying site.
