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!

And the nice thing, It doesn’t hurt the users of one or the other, all content on both platforms are accessible on both platforms! the more the merrier
Since I’m new here, how? When I click on Communities, it does not seem to show me anything from KBin.
Kbins cloudflare ddos protection fucks federation up at the moment. when its working again you do as you would any other community. If no one in your instance subscribes to it, it wont be in the list, then you aearch for it with !communityname@kbin.social and your instance will federate with it
