Eh? What are you talking about? There’s literally a bunch of Russia and Ukraine news at https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews. This rumor mill needs to stop. People started some bad rumors about Lemmy devs just because of their political association and now its blown up into full lies.

I use both Lemmy and Kbin, but I prefer Lemmy for a bunch of different reasons:

1. Interface is cleaner and more performant.
2. Getting to your list of subscribed magazines in kbin is a pain in the ass. Why is it buried in Settings?
3. Kbin votes are public. This is just bad for privacy. It’s one thing to say that votes are public due to federation, and whole other thing to blatantly show it in the UI. There’s a reason why voting at a government level is kept secret, just sayin’.
4. Also why the hell are they called magazines? None of the names in kbin map to existing conventions. “Threads” are posts. “Magazines” are communities or groups. I never get used to it because it isn’t natural to call these things the way kbin calls them.

I gotta say it’s awesome seeing crossposts between Lemmy and Kbin. Once they get all the federation issues worked out I can really see it being really seamless.
