with #reddit exodus, people should know these numbers :

#lemmy : 141 developpers/contributors and written in mainstream 'rust' language
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy​

#kbin : no contributors, written in PHP ( not the most popular language)
https://github.com/ernestwisniewski/kbin​

I don't know why there is so much 'hype' on #kbin​

I think the lemmy developper have  made an error and should not mix coding and politics, but in terms of developement, lemmy has a better structure
