    So, is this lemmy? I just signed up for kbin wasn’t sure if this is lemmy and I can use this to reach other instances. Also an Apollo refugee.

      Kbin supports any activitypub service, so it’d work for lemmy, mastodon, etc. So you can still view posts from lemmy communities, comment on them and have upvotes synced between the two.

      Kbin isnt actually lemmy as far as i know, its a different project, but they can interact with each other thanks to the protocol of ActivityPub.

        Could someone explain kbin for me? Is it like a different instance the way lemmy.ml or beehaw is? Or is it a different thing altogether?

          Its a similar project to lemmy, great thing about federated apps is how open they are, so with kbin ur still able to interact with lemmy/mastodon etc like normal
