Loving it so far! The 🌎bin branding is a nice touch.

Does capital (🌎 Bin) or lowercase (🌎 bin) look better though?

I think I prefer lowercase. It becomes “Earth-bin” rather than “Earth Bin”.

🌎 bin, or Earth-bin, sounds to be like a universal take on the kbin/mbin network. In the end they’re both *bins; Replacing the * with 🌎 makes this website 🌎bin.

🌎 Bin, or Earth Bin, sounds to me like a garbage can for the earth.

The difference is obviously not that huge, but that’s my intuition at least. :)

lol, I hadn’t even thought about it sounding like a garbage can. Hopefully, nobody else thinks that when they see the website.

Yeah, that makes sense. I’ll stick with lowercase :)

Thanks :) I thought Mbin 🌎 sounded a little weird, and the domain is still technically kbin.earth, so I could have stuck with Kbin 🌎, but 🌎 bin is a nice mix.
