I could easily imagine people from reddit testing out sync. I am frankly shocked by how mature it already feels.
It's already a full fledged Lemmy app.
I used Sync for Reddit for years. Never heard of Lemmy. I tried using the Reddit app the last month and it sucks hard. So I got the notification from Sync that Sync for Lemmy is out, and went and made a Lemmy account today. I still have no idea what it is, but here I am.
Welcome! Here's a Youtube Short from @misnina@crystals.rest that I think does a great job of summarizing Lemmy and the Fediverse:

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/shorts/lOweVru5dO0
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
It's just reddit, but content is spread on multiple sites that talk to one another. There's some issues with the setup, such as content duplication, but as people learn the ins and outs (use crossposts, people), and the feature set upgrades, it should become better.
