I can certainly tell you that Lemmy wont blindly follow what Mastodon is doing.

Good to hear.

They arent doing a good job for the Fediverse, for example they make zero effort to improve compatibility with other projects. Instead others are left to reverse engineer their federation logic.

Yeah. Plus, the sheer size of mastodon.social and the monoculture of Mastodon-based instances is just unhealthy. I wrote about it at length.

Will we get tabbed/grouped windows finally again? Been waiting for this for ~~half~~ more than a decade.

Or by random dice throws.

KBin is dealing with the onslaught of new users, and as it is a newer project, it's not handling it as well as Lemmy.

Also, you are looking at user accounts, I was talking about monthly active users.
Also also, biggest instance of KBin is currently out of federation (so does not show up in these stats), but it is still growing and is pretty damn huge now: https://kbin.social/stats

We shall see what happens when kbin.social re-joins federation. But also: this is not a competition. What matters is that there are independent software projects in this space.

I wish I came up wit it myself! Sadly no, noticed it in a few threads over the last few days.

Humans are amazing.

I do indeed use a Lemmy instance that is not aligned with tankie politics. That being said, I am also acutely aware that technology is political and developers of a given piece of software make decisions based on their personal politics, sometimes even without knowing it. So it is important, I feel, to be aware of that.

In what sense? Kbin is struggling with the wave of new subscriptions just as Lemmy is, and since it's a smaller project with fewer resources, it's having a harder time doing so.

That does not make the fact that at some point Kbin was ahead of Lemmy in terms of active accounts any less notable. I would even argue it makes it more notable.

[-] rysiek@szmer.info 6 points 2 years ago

competition can be a good thing in this space.

Absolutely, that's why I am celebrating Kbin existing and being used.

Yes. Check out the biggest currently active instance of Kbin, https://fedia.io/ — plenty of stuff from Lemmy instances.
