I started on https://midwest.social (Lemmy) before Kbin was on my radar because I'm from the Midwest. There are things I like about both platforms. I'm spending more time on kbin.social right now because Midwest is having performance issues, but I like the community there, so I may hang out on both and see where the platforms go with development, features, mobile apps, and the feel for the local community.
I haven't fully understood the fediverse, which part of Midwest.social is it you can't access from kbin? Seems all the communities there show up when searching from kbin.social? Guess I don't get the difference between kbin and a lemmy instance
