Kbin and lemmy are two different sites. Lemmy is a reddit-style site. Kbin has lemmy-style threads but also mastodon-style microblogs.
They both can interact with each other since they're both a part of the fediverse. Personally, I like kbin.
But was Kbin built from the ground up as it’s own project or is it a fork of something else? And where does Squabbles fit into all of this?
Kbin started as a fork of Lemmy AFAIK
Maybe in the dim and distant but not now. It's written in a completely different language for a start 🤣
This is not true. Lemmys backend is written in rust, kbin in php.
Argue with the man himself
