Hopefully this means it would be possible to use Sync to sign into Kbin as well in the future?
Kbin federates with Lemmy and mastodon. Lemmy has more users so more people voting up things there, but a lot of that front page is posted from kbin. Devs are not focusing on lemmy unless they’re Lemmy people. There are devs focusing on kbin too. We now have an active kbin enhancement suite going, just like RES used to be for reddit. So customizing how you interact with fedi is more in your control. Artemis app is being done by @hariette, and beta users are super happy with it.
I’m not saying ALL devs are focusing on Lemmy.
But Lemmy has like 15 mobile apps, 3 web frontends, a Mac App or two, etc.
KBin has a handful.
It’s not a contest though, just how it is
Kbin was just a year old when everyone went there. It went from a few hundred to a couple thousand and then to 50k users in a couple weeks. It was literally one person, @ernest, until a few weeks ago. Lemmy has had a few years of people working on it, an active subreddit for a few years. The Lemmy creators were active on several subs for years. It’s not a surprise that kbin just now has more than one person working on developing.
