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

    There’s a big difference which is that clients have minimal lock in. Reddit has a monopoly over the community while you can easily switch clients with little lost.

      But switching clients means wasting your time learning a different app and getting used to different UI. I wouldn’t like to switch from Connect at this point even though it’s a bit buggy so I think client does matter a lot. Reddit APIcalypse was all about clients and if I didn’t care about the client I would still use Reddit with RedReader. Or if I cared even less I would use Reddit app.
