Looks like KBin has an edge over Lemmy now in terms of monthly active users.
It's obviously a pretty silly thing, and is not in any way indicative of which project is "better" or more "long-term viable" or anything — instances of both federate with one another, and with the rest of fedi, so it's all one happy family.
That said, it's notable. KBin is a relative newcomer to the "Reddit-like fedi instance" game, and also does not have the tankie baggage.
Anyway, the more, the merrier!

I keep hearing people commenting about that, but so far I haven't noticed any particular tankie-ish influence.
Maybe I'm just not choosing the communities where they hang out?
Lemmy.ca blocks lemmygrad just like Beehaw so you can't see anything from the biggest tankie community on Lemmy.
You can see this here https://lemmy.ca/instances
So for those of us that do t have any association or federation with the "tankie lemmy", there shouldn't be any taint, right?
