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!

    Does that mean when I browse Lemmy I see kbin content by default? Do I need to add it somehow? I’m using Jerboa on Android.

      You can join communities on KBin instances, you can post to them and comment on posts in them, and KBin users can join communities on Lemmy instances and post to them, and comment on such posts.

      So, “yes”, but you might have to subscribe to a given community first.
