I see kbin.social mentioned here and there where lemmy is discussed. How are those two related? Are they linked up, or are those completely separate communities?

In terms of fear of missing out on content, your safer bet is Lemmy. It has 10x the user-count and 100x the comment count according to https://the-federation.info/platform/73 and https://the-federation.info/platform/184.

You SHOULD be able to cross subscribe (to kbin magazines from Lemmy accounts and to Lemmy communities from kbin accounts), though I'm the last day or two I've heard trouble from Lemmy users trying to subscribe to kbin magazines. I expect that will blow over soon enough cross-subscription will work on again. But most of the action I've seen is in Lemmy communities. The main active kbin communities have been for "frontpage" topics like tech and news which are already well covered on Lemmy.
