I'm torn as well. I find it easier to navigate Lemmy but Kbin's interface feels much more polished.

As someone who wants to self-host an instance, which would you guys recommend? I've been reading through the documentation for both and Lemmy seems easier to install. Does anyone have experience with both? I'm interested to know how well they scale in terms of performance.

edit: And to add, I'm not a fan of kbin's "microblog" and "magazine" is a strange word for "community".
