Looks like KBin has an edge over Lemmy now in terms of monthly active users.
It's obviously a pretty silly thing, and is not in any way indicative of which project is "better" or more "long-term viable" or anything — instances of both federate with one another, and with the rest of fedi, so it's all one happy family.
That said, it's notable. KBin is a relative newcomer to the "Reddit-like fedi instance" game, and also does not have the tankie baggage.
Anyway, the more, the merrier!

I’m pretty uneasy about the association, but the attitude of Beehaw is the antithesis of it so I guess it balances out..?
I did play with Kbin first but the interface felt kinda broken to me, buttons not reacting and the like..
Tbh, it's floss so I don't care who's working on it. I just don't really get kbin ui myself, lemmy is far closer to reddit for me. If I wanted the microblogging I already have Mastodon so I don't see why it's trying to do both. I prefer the old unix philosophy myself.
Kbin just feels like a home project to my eyes. Hope it goes well and the federation will be absolutely amazing.
