    @mysoulishome I think kbin connect better to Mastodon and vice versa as well since it also have the ‘Microblog’ section, this post (as seen on Lemmy) and this reply are posted throught the microblog on kbin.

    also I just think kbin looks nicer and more appealing to casual users rather than lemmy.

        I comes down to what you’re comfortable with. If you were a Redditor, the post/comment/upvote/sub/sort ideas make sense, so you’re going to feel at home in Lemmy using an app like Voyager. But if you were used to twitter, the mastodon world of microblogging will be more comfortable to you,. Kbin developers are specifically trying to make a software that can gracefully present both worlds to the user and unify this experience (as a stated goal).

        I heard another lemming say ‘lemmy is for following interests and mastodon is for following people’. Ask yourself which you do more often, and you’ll know where to go.
