Are you comparing kbin to all of the lemmy fediverse?
Because kbin is part of the fediverse and has as far as I understand been bigger then the biggest lemmy instances for a while by a good margin?

Can someone please explain the "tankie baggage"?
I understand the words, but not the history.
Can someone explain the "tankie" baggage? I've seen it thrown around quite a bit but no one seems to explain it in detail.
just looked for the first time, I really do prefer kbin's UI to Lemmy's right now at least the default web client. Is there value in running both or just one?
I notice I can see mastadon posts on lemmy as well but how do I find stuff on Kbin or Mastadon from lemmy?
That's what I think most of us newcomers are struggling to figure out right now. Do I need a Mastadon account and a Lemmy account, or can I just use one to see the rest? Is there a better Android app or other website to integrate it all? Is matrix.org a part of all of this fediverse stuff?
what you need is what you want, personally im working my way around, I also notice that while fediverse content is technically connected, im not seeing a clean way to fully intereact with or browse mastadon or kbin content like i can lemmy content. It seems you still need to be ON these various apps if you want discoverability to be fully functional.
something i would expect will be fixed in the future.
personally ill be running instances of a number of fediverse apps and then keeping the apps i like.
Nice to see the fediverse growing no matter where it is. As long as we can all communicate it doesn't matter what instance or software we're on.
Sidenote: is kbin a fork of lemmy? Or a different codebase entirely?
If I were to switch from Lemmy to KBin (or vice versa), would I have to start over (e.g. create a new account there and lose all my comments etc.)? Or would it be possible to “migrate”?
For now, you would have to lost everything and create a new account. But maybe we'll see a solution for it coming
in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail
Umm, you really should have launched this before shutting down the current tools mods use.
