Love Reddit but tired of what’s happening to it? We check out Lemmy and Kbin, two open-source fediverse alternatives that are growing fast.

    Every article or thread I read comparing kbin vs lemmy, kbin always comes out on top and yet lemmy has way more users and I just can’t figure out why.

      Kbin is about 3 months old whereas Lemmy is about 3 years old. Kbin simply wasn’t ready for growth, and still has a few major feature shortfalls. Lack of API access is a big one.
