Maybe it's nothing, but Reddit seems particularly sensitive towards kbin.
I think its interface is so much more similar to Reddit it scares them ๐ค
Tbh lemmy seems more reddity to me. Kbin has the whole microblogging thing too, which differentiates it more imo, tho kbin does seem to be faster and less glitchy (when the servers are up lol)
Someone suggesting a RIF like client got Lemmy is what got me to make the jump over. If Apollo and/or RIF just support other communities, it's enough to steal a lot of the anti y users
Someone on github is making a translation layer to convert reddit API calls to Lemmy API calls. If that ends up working well, it could be as easy as changing the API URL to make reddit clients work for lemmy
