Yeah but kbin has fallen behind on development. The sole dev has been having personal issues, which is understandable, however the project really could do with more imperitive behind it. Someone forked off and made mbin, but so far that’s just diluting things.
I think lemmy is where it’s at. The core devs are questionable (certainly one of the original duo is, the other is maybe more diplomatic) but ultimately it doesn’t matter who the devs are but specifically what code is put into the instance you use. The devs design the machine, but it’s the instance admin who build it, and ultimately the instance admin is who you’re putting your trust with.
