I have been thinking which of the two should i use. If i understand fully i can still browse lemmy instances on kbin. And i can even check out mastodon users on it.
If this is the case, why would anyone choose lemmy instead of kbin? I assume there must be another aspects i don’t know of?
I made an account in both and installed their websites as pwas on my phone. For lemmy (on lemmy.world) there is a bug/feature that constantly loads new shit no matter the sorting which at first made it unusable for me.
This is supposed to be gone in 18.1 though but lemmy.world has issues upadating.
Kbin PWA does not respect orientation lock which also really grinds my gears.
So today I started looking into apps. Currently on wefwef PWA and its the best experience so far but needs more interface customisation eg thumbs on the right so I can properly take a wank and browse with one hand.
Another vouch for wefwef. I’ve been trying it since yesterday and it’s really good and fast.
Regarding kbin, the main problem that I see is that it isn’t transparent about in which server a community (aka magazine), so there are lots of kbin self posts that actually are in other servers (like lemmy.world). Thats a problem when you’re trying to understand how this fediverse thing actually works.
