I took a quick look while it was up and it was just a user guide, similar to the lemmymigration subreddit

I tried to register for Kbin and never got the registration email.

Sorry if this is a dumb question - wtf is Kbin? I ass it mentioned on here everywhere, is it another Lemmy instance? I feel out of the loop!

kbin is part of the federation - like Lemmy - but it is coded differently and has a different developer. Since it is part of the federation, though, Lemmy users can subscribe to kbin communities (called magazines) and vice versa. kbin has threads like Lemmy, but it also has a micro blogging option similar to Twitter/Mastodon.

If they use the same protocol, can KBin readers browse Lemmy communities?

[–] Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

They can and do. Seen quite a few Kbin users wandering around here.
