      thanks! if you don’t mind, what’s the difference between Lemmy and kbin? as far as I can tell, they’re part of a federated system, but kbin seems a bit quicker and more responsive when posting. is Lemmy going through a transition or am is there possibly something on my end I could check?

        They are both link aggregators. With kbin you can follow, post all of Lemmy without registering on a Lemmy instance.

        Kbin also integrates easy with mastodon and show’s the microblog in the same way as if it was a Lemmy thread.

        I registered on Lemmy and on kbin checking both out . I like kbin more for now but keep my options open.

          thanks! I started with Lemmy, ther signed up for kbin due to your post. I have been having some difficulty with things timing out on Lemmy, while kbin seems a bit more functional at the moment, but I’m using both to see how I feel in the long-term.
