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.
Connect is actually heavily inspired by sync. Sync's nice, but maybe only a bit more polished then connec, otherwise the interface is very similar. When I tried sync the other day the search wasn't working, so I think I'll just stay with connect. Honestly, I never used sync for Reddit so when I tried it after hearing all the hype I was kinda let down. It's nice but it's in the same league as like 3 or 4 other apps imo (assuming they fixed search)
