    Can somebody ELI5 the difference between kbin and lemmy. I think I understand lemmy being like mastadon. Who is hosting kbin?

      Kbin is also like Mastadon. It’s basically the same thing as lemmy, just with a slightly different user interface. (I personally like it better, which is why I’m here, lol.)

      The main kbin instance, kbin.social, is hosted by a guy called @Ernest, who’s also the main (only?) dev who created kbin. But there are other kbin instances hosted by totally unaffiliated people, too.
