A lot of users push for Discord. Very few (comparatively) push for Lemmy/Kbin.

I was a mod of a 500k+ subreddit. We wound up basically being forced to make a Discord a few years ago because users wanted one so badly. It wound up becoming more active than the actual subreddit itself, and has a bigger mod team (most of whom aren't even mods on the subreddit, just Discord).
