It's worth mentioning that the Lemmy focus among app developers is probably temporary. Since it's only brand new software, kbin currently has no API active at all. Lemmy has been around for longer and has an established API. It's not anything personal against kbin.

    Yeah, I never took it as preferential treatment or anything. Part of it is just that I used Boost for Reddit, so a part of me wants thinks it would be cool to continue to support them. I'll probably just stick here though. I'm sure eventually someone will make an app.

    I'm sure most Lemmy apps will add Kbin support down the line, too. The lead developer for Sync for Lemmy already said he's looking into it, I believe. At the moment, Kbin doesn't have an API though, so it's less straightforward to approach I guess.

    For an app designed for Kbin first and Lemmy second, Artemis is under way and you can follow it here: https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp
