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!

The lack of app for KBin kills it for me.
I have a account with KBin and I may use it as well if there's an app
On Android, you can add it to your home screen and it functions kind of like an app... it could definitely benefit from a native app, though.
Nobody is going to fly with mobile browser these days. It's App or die in this regard.
The biggest social media sites have apps. It's suicide. Heck, the reason these sites are having the mass infux is because Reddits app sucks. If it was amazing nobody would of really cared and the spez drama wouldn't have happened.
Just my 2c.
