Hello, you might have noticed (or not) that posts from kbin, more specifically kbin.social aren’t showing anywhere, this is due the DDoS protection they currently have on. So even if you are subscribed to kbin.social communities you won’t see any posts from the outside.
Same is happening inside kbin.social where users there cannot see posts from the outside. This is however temporary and the admin is working on getting federation back online.
The site is currently reporting 125k registered users https://kbin.social/stats.
I think that kbin is very promising, but I feel like it is early days yet. Even if they don’t end up being the dominant platform, I feel like some of the features they are working on will persist.
