I see a very small minority of people using Kbin, but I don’t understand why.

Is this just a coincidence and did some people choose Kbin over Lemmy or is there a good reason to use Kbin?

      From a brief look at their public API, it only seems to users to GET stuff, and not POST stuff yet, so that would limit the possibility of apps.

      The REST API is still in development. Once that gets released I’m sure app devs will spring up and build something fancy. I think Artemis is already working on an integration but that’s with html scraping.

      There’s been a heap of work on the mobile UI/UX and I’m constantly pushing to get more mobile centric features into prod.

        Official API is almost getting there. I’m alredy updating the app to start using it with my test instance that has it deployed. Just to get ahead of it.
