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.
I used Sync for Reddit for about 10 years but with the switch to the Fediverse I’ve adopted more of a FOSS mindset.
My initial reaction was vitriolic for no other reason than being disappointed due to my own expectations. I’m sure it’s still a great app and I still absolutely appreciate and respect lj; it’s just not for me anymore. But that doesn’t give me the right to force my opinion on others.
Ultimately I’m just happy we’re growing and I believe that’s what we should be focussing on.
