What’s the difference between Kbin and Lemmy? (kbin.social)

They’re both built on ActivityPub and look very similar, but Kbin is talked about like an alternative to Lemmy instead of an instance of it. Is it a fork? Why is it better or worse?

I much prefer the Kbin UI myself.

Same Kbin is more Reddit-like than Lemmy.

kbin does feel like a more polished user experience than Lemmy, although the frequent cloudflare challenges are annoying

I kind of like them. Adds a dash of jank my teen-during-the-2000's sensibility enjoys.
