before the whole reddit clusterfuck and blackout started I created both kbin and lemmy accounts. One of those is just gathering dust
Yeah, I have a kbin account as well, but I prefer Lemmy so far, since it actually has a data API and I prefer the web interface over that of kbin (and now we have old.lemmy.world!)
I am test driving Artemis for kbin, but Hariette and her team have an uphill battle until kbin comes up with an API, so development has been slow. Not their fault, of course.
API is almost done! Been using an internal build of the app that uses Artemis’ kbin instance with those changes. And oh god is so much better 👌
So we’re nearing a point where apps for kbin will start popping up ✨
The more options the better. For now Lemmy is good and the apps are progressing at an awesome pace, honestly didn’t expect that.
The ace in the hole that Lemmy and kbin have is that it doesn’t matter which one you prefer because they can talk to each other. Can’t say the same about Squabbles.
Wtf that’s awesome! Have they open sourced that?
EDIT: I found it https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym
Same. I just don’t have a reason to use kbin. The interface is not my cup of tea and I don’t like the way they’ve handled communities or ‘mAgAzInEs’.
