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?

    At least we have the option to turn off federation. I haven’t done so yet, but I have noticed a dive in post quality since federation was turned back on. Everything on kbin itself that I’ve seen has been cordial and civil, but there have been a number of comments from lemmy users I’ve seen in just the last day that led me to block some channels of theirs, and a bit more shitposting than I’d like in my feed.
