Anyone with kbin experience? Seems like there are multiple instances you can join...are any substantively different/better? Any recommendations?
@specwill On the main instance kbin.social the federation is not working at the moment because of claudflare ddos protection. The developer is working on it, but you can currently see the "subs" of the other instances only very limited.
Currently I would recommend
https://fedia.io if you want to register.

But you can also subscribe or read the subs with your Mastodon account. just enter the sub and the instance in the search. e.g. "@ technology@ beehaw.org" (without the spaces) if you want to read or subscribe the sub "technology" on beehaw.org. You can find most subs via the lemmy Community browser

@specwill The federation on kbin.social is now running 🎉
@specwill In general, you should of course look when you choose an instance whether the administrator with his views fits to you and how his TOS look like. Furthermore, the Communit and the language of the instance should fit you. Since kbin is still a really young project, there is not yet so much choice of instances. I would therefore currently choose one of the two large instances I mentioned above - or go with your Mastodon account.
@pomi hey, thank you!! This is super helpful, I really appreciate it.
