And that's surprising, given it's s newer, less-established platform. But it's not like Lemmy was a household name before this.
It's also surprising because there are just fewer prominent kbin-based websites. Lemmy has lemmy.ml, lemmy.one, lemmy.world, and sh.itjust.works. And Beehaw, I guess, but they specifically throttle their growth.
kbin has kbin.social, and then a bunch of instances that are just way, way lower profile.
I mean, it's so surprising that we should probably question it a little bit.
Anecdotally, from looking at Mastodon, it seems like people there are hyping kbin (and fedia.io) more than lemmy... that could just be the people I happen to be following, though.
Well, you can use Mastadon with a kbin username so there’s that. I don’t think you can with Lemmy.
You cannot use mastodon from kbin or lemmy. I think you might be referencing the fact that from kbin you can create
Note
posts, which appear on mastodon, pleroma, calckey, etc as a normal (tweet-like) post.That's not why mastodon users are hyping kbin over lemmy. There are rumors going around that the lemmy developers are bad people and a lot of mastodon users now consider lemmy blacklisted because of that
