I’m a bit confused with my options here. I am looking at Reddit alternatives and see a lot of people flocking to lemmy but it seemed like kbin was the more centrist option?
Apparently lemmy was set up by a tankie and has some CCP propaganda and other problematic background?

I have accounts with both and definitely seems like kbin is struggling compared to lemmy but that could just be because lemmy is better established? What are people’s thoughts?
On top of every community being massively overloaded right now as myk said, kbin had to set up an attack protection, temporarily, because the servers couldn’t hold the load.
It’s probably not a real attack, just immense load, but in any case, all that seriously disrupts the communication between the 2 platforms.
Nothing is working as intended right now, we have to wait a few weeks probably, until the reddit influx slows down and things go back to normal, before we can truly see how the federation is supposed to work.
