Out of curiosity how has Kbin got more active users, it seems like the majority of subs jumped ship to Lemmy instances
Similarly the majority of current/planned apps for iOS/android are all targeted towards Lemmy
Edit: I guess a question about how active users are calculated, something like 90% of Reddit users don't comment/post and I'd assume it would be similar here so would feel weird to exclude them though I guess the stats are going to be a bit wacky for a while regardless
I think that perhaps more Reddit users are moving to Kbin because it feels & looks more like Reddit. At least that is the feeling that I get. But in all honesty, no idea.
That's where I started due to ease on the eyes and similar experience at first. Now I'm more comfortable on lemmy. Also, @ward2k i don't know how it factors into active users, but they could just call kbin a home and mostly interact on lemmy communities. No idea how that affects numbers.
I'm on Lemmy via Jerboa because that was the first app I found for fediverse browsing on my mobile.
I seems more desktop/laptop users are partial to Kbin, but mobile users drift towards Lemmy from what Ive seen.
There are currently no Kbin apps because Kbin doesn't have an API yet.
Mostly because Jerboa is relatively easy to use plus with the apparent 9 different apps in development now lol
I used Jerboa on mobile also but I use kbin on desktop. Maybe that will change once a real kbin app comes out
