Hopefully this means it would be possible to use Sync to sign into Kbin as well in the future?
KBin is weird. The few times I’ve looked it’s been all lemmy content for the first several pages of the front page of kbin.social
Like it just seems like a weird Lemmy front end at this point, in practical terms.
And with its total user base much smaller than Lemmy’s, it’s understandable devs are focusing on Lemmy.
Kbin federates with Lemmy and mastodon. Lemmy has more users so more people voting up things there, but a lot of that front page is posted from kbin. Devs are not focusing on lemmy unless they’re Lemmy people. There are devs focusing on kbin too. We now have an active kbin enhancement suite going, just like RES used to be for reddit. So customizing how you interact with fedi is more in your control. Artemis app is being done by @hariette, and beta users are super happy with it.
I’m not saying ALL devs are focusing on Lemmy.
But Lemmy has like 15 mobile apps, 3 web frontends, a Mac App or two, etc.
KBin has a handful.
It’s not a contest though, just how it is
and kbin seems to federate REAAAALLLY slowly in my experience. A lemmy post will have 100+ comments on any lemmy instance, but then you view it in kbin and there’s like 5 comments. My profile when viewed in kbin is days/weeks behind.
It feels so empty and like you’re in the past lol.
If it helps, I can see all your most recent comments.
