Why the destinction?No. Kbin is it's own seperate project and software https://github.com/ernestwisniewski/kbinI think the problem is people say lemmy when they mean either. My cheat sheet. Fediverse: a family of applications that are able to communicate with each other and provide various facilities. Threadiverse: subset of the fediverse, any federated program providing content aggregation / forum facilities. Lemmy: the main established application in the genre. Providing a primarily content aggregation and forum redditesque experience. Kbin: newer project providing the news aggregation and forum features but also micro logging that works with mastadon. Others I don't know about but do exist.But I can read and comment on Lemmy threads from kbinThe magic of ActivityPub
