I'm noticing the opposite is true as well. There are communities on lemmy that have a lot of threads posted, but only 1 or 2 (or none) show up in kbin.

I have noticed the same.
For example "https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]" only has a handful of threads compared to the several that have been posted since I subscribed a few days ago.
kbin.social must still be having severe problems. Ernest posted this a day ago:

We're experiencing massive delays on the queues today. We're actively working on a solution,
and I think we're getting really close. Just wanted to let you know ;)
One thing you might try doing is switching to a different KBIN server. The smaller ones are probably Federating just fine with Lemmy and the other KBIN instances, although everyone will have trouble Federating with kbin.social.
I wonder why Ernest doesn't turn off new sign ups on kbin.social and ask people who want to join KBIN to do so on a different instance so the problems there aren't exasperated?
I would, but I've already set up shop with my forums here and trying to recreate them and move all the threads would be impossible.
I think we might need to publicize different kbin instances. When I learned about Lemmy I also immediately heard of at least 5 instances (lemmygrad.ml, lemmy.ml, beehaw.org, lemmy.world, and sh.itjust.works) and join-lemmy.org points you at a ton of different instances. With Kbin, I know there have to be different instances but I only knew of kbin.social when initially joining. Right now I’m also aware of kbin.cafe, but that’s it.
For others reading this, there are 2 others that I know well: https://feddit.online and https://fedia.io
You can find bunches here: https://kbin.pub/en
The Fediverse Observer lets you see all the kbin and lemmy instances but -- frustratingly, and unlike with things like Mastodon -- there's no link from their main page.
But the list for lemmy is here:
https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/
And for kbin, it's here:
I have not seen any servers on the entire fediverse federating at any kind of acceptable level. lemmy, kbin, mastodon, all of them are mostly blind to the communities on the others. I also have not seen any word about it from any admins anywhere.
I’m seeing this on Beehaw where it showed up in my subscribed feed fwiw.
