    Could mean 1 of 2 things:

    1. Kbin is so good that even though there is little content and wonky lemmy federation, people still go there.
    2. Lemmy content is so good no matter where you are, you don't want to miss anything.

    You pick ;)

    Why not both?

    And why not Zoidberg?

    Federation is no more wonky than between regular Lemmy instances in my experience. I've had issues with both at times.
    It was only for a few days when the Reddit protest started that federation was barely working at all, it's been mostly fine for quite a while now!

    I guess it's both. Met a lot of kbin people in the past few days, so I went to check how this here looks from there. Kbin interface + Lemmy content seems like the best of both worlds, but the interoperability is pretty broken, sadly.

    Personally, I'm here for the interface. I tried getting into Lemmy. It was unnecessarily arcane, and unnecessarily arcane things usually don't prosper in these scenarios.

    I disagree... I prefer Lemmy's interface over that of kbin, plus it has better mobile app support. I'd say mobile app support is what matters most in the long run if we want more users.

    Maybe I will change my mind once Artemis comes out. But it is nice that they federate with each other.

    The homepage for kbin is a lot better at sorting active posts. I prefer it on this end 👍

    I use kbin to VIEW Lemmy content because I prefer the responsiveness and the UI a bit more than Lemmy itself. But choices are good!

    This is something that I don't quite get because Kbin doesn't even have an option to collapse comments, are there are any other things that you think Kbin does better than Lemmy? I also don't like how the thumbnails are stretched for image posts, and that images open on a second page load instead of inline. The lemmy experience in 0.17 was a bit messy with webhooks, but 0.18 is much better (check lemmy.ml for an instance running 0.18).

    I kinda prefer that look honestly with the stretched boxes and thumbnails. Collapse comments is nice on Lemmy but I found that when i was upvoting or refreshing it seemed to lag and take a few seconds. Maybe that’s fixed I’ll go check it out!

    I browse on desktop, therefore at this point in time, I use kbin. All other UIs I've found in the fediverse are pretty bad by comparison. Way too much garbage on the screen on most of them, and lemmy.world has an auto-updating scroll that you can't disable that I suspect is also a memory leak.

    lemmy.world has an auto-updating scroll that you can’t disable that I suspect is also a memory leak.

    The auto-updating should be gone in Lemmy 0.18, but lemmy.world is waiting for 0.18.1 to update so they can keep sign-up captcha. Should only be a couple of days, from what I've read.

    Currently stuck with Lemmy, gonna move as soon as I manage to package kbin for YunoHost

    AFAIK kbin is just Lemmy+Mastodon mixed into a weird combo so yeah, it just acts like another Lemmy instance for the most part
