The mods of r/blind spun up their own instance:

At the very least they’re confident enough in being able to get it where they need it to be with time and from what they’ve said, the devs seem more than willing to accept their PRs. The great thing about Federation though is that even if Lemmy devs tell them too fuck off and refuse to work with them, they can still maintain their fork and stay in contact with the rest f the lemmy/kbin instances while retaining their accessibility improvements.

Reddit seemed to actively be going out of their way to make things difficult, so I have to imagine it’s a nice change of pace to have some control over their future community, even if it isn’t as good as Reddit was.

ETA: The biggest hurdles for both KBin and Lemmy right now seem to be moderation at all, let alone moderation via apps, which is one of their big concerns. Again though, at least Lemmy devs want to get there and aren’t just trying to IPO and make a quick buck.
