KBin has taken over Lemmy in monthly active users count
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!

"Tankie baggage?"
Lemmy devs are tankies.
I keep hearing similar things, but not a single person has linked to a comment or anything the devs have actually said.
Where can I read about this? I want to see what they said.
I don't see much proof there outside of some "this definitely happened" type thing. Not that I don't believe them but that's not the strongest proof.
Heh, I just used another instance throught doubt just in case. They're overloaded anyway. Code doesn't have a political opinion (well, licences might), and other instances don't show signs of what the commi instance is being accused off as far as I can tell
the devs don't even deny it, they've posted to reddit, but that's gone now.
I suspect both the tankie, extreme right and left wing content is being suppressed by the slew of new content being posted now. And that shit not getting the votes it needs to be seen anymore.
lemmy.ml is full of lemmygrad tankie posts
It's funny seeing a communist use the word tankie unironically
I mean, there are very different flavors of communist, so it kind of makes sense. You can believe in communal ownership of all non-personal property without supporting the violent oppression of dissent.
It's not weird for ancoms to say it, we say it all the time.
