For what it's worth, I've heard that there's a major update coming this month sometime for Kbin, first in a while, so it might get a lot better (with the expected new bugs to chase). On desktop it's been mostly okay with the occasional glitches, but the real question that is hard to measure is how much is getting in and out from the fediverse properly. Hard to have a baseline when all the software is beta at best.

Oooh, that is exciting! Yes I did not mention (my answer was already getting long-ish for social media) that the desktop experience is more or less perfectly fine, at least insofar as the first issue is concerned, but the notifications issue still applies (you must not have ever happened to comment on a post that was later removed by a mod on another instance? or else the issue could be sporadic, who knows:-D), and anyway a social media website that suffers such severe accessibility issues from a mobile device could definitely be a factor in causing a drop in number of active users... It will get better over time, but as it currently stands, it is far from perfect. (Though I'm still here:-P)
