    Pretty fascinating to see that at this point they both have approximately 50k active users. Also that kbin’s growth is almost entirely in kbin.social while lemmy is concentrated in lemmy.world but has dozens of other instances as well. Do you think that will lead to structural/content differences at some point? Very cool to see and I love the community between the two!

      I think that a large part of that is because a lot of Lemmy servers were overloaded so people spun up new instances. Kbin on the other hand remained available for signups. It’s why I’m at kbin. I couldn’t register at any Lemmy instance and I didn’t want to run my own.

      kbin’s number is too high, it counts all users.

      lemmy’s number is too low, you have to post to be active.

        The stats page counts all users, but the nodeinfo page displays data on active users. Fedidb takes data from the nodeinfo page for each kbin instance it tracks.
