      Did you actually try mbin? Because we fixed a huge number of federation issues kbin had/has. Sure a bunch still need to be worked on, but we do our best and improve it with every release

        Not a fan of Melroy(mbin founder). They claim to have been a dev for Lemmy and kbin. Then when they didn’t get the control they wanted, started their own instance. When that didn’t take off, he ranted very publically once again about how the current team he was “working with” sucked and how he was the only true savior of the fediverse. Then he started mbin, which he named after himself(Melroy Bin).

        His entire attitude has been “fuck you, I’m taking my ball and going home if you don’t listen to me” from the start.

        HARD PASS.

          Totally different implementations of activitypub servers, for one thing.

          Kbin/mbin were also designed to try to support both interfacing with micro blogging (as in Mastodon and a few others) and with Threads (as in Lemmy and a couple others).

          It’s pretty good overall, and I started on kbin, but I’ve found myself using Lemmy instead for a while, mostly because of better clients on mobile. And a handful of technical/design issues on kbin that were annoying me (although some have been improved since)

          Mbin is a close fork of Kbin.
