I didn't get into Lemmy until there was a mobile client available, Sync to be specific. I believe it since a lot of Reddit users were basically mobile only. So, for a few months I basically subsisted on YouTube alone.

I feel your pain. I also tried Instagram to satiate the mobile scrolling, but the comments there are just horrible and low-effort. The fediverse via Sync is okay, but there's still much to be desired.

Is your issue with Sync or with the current state of the fediverse?

The current state of the fediverse. Sync is great!

Sync came out in August tho, I used Connect in the meantime lol

Sync is only one of many clients. And when it came out wasn't the point of my post. But if no big clients came out in October then they couldn't have been a factor at all.

That is sorta my point, I don't know how much mobile app releases factored in to the spike back up in October. It probably did have some effect though
