I prefer the UI of lemmy.world to Kbin, and it's been smoother for me as well. But I've got an account at both. Still haven't entirely made up my mind on which to make my "main".

I came to kbin first when reddit shut down the /r/kbinmigration sub. Streisand effect.
Later I learned it was an anti spam feature and not intentional, but the damage was done.
Everyone in kbin is handsome and / or gorgeous! Everyone in Lemmy is a Lemmy user ๐ /s
In all seriousness, kbin is developed by Ernest who is an extremely devoted and trustworthy dev. Lemmy is developed by CCP shills. That's the reason I chose kbin.
kbin is also getting steadily updated and I have a very good feeling about its stability and featureset in a few months taking a look at the GitHub.
I first was on Lemmy, now on kbin. Kbin is just a much more nicer experience. Also it's not developed by tankies who glorify f*cking Mao Zedong. Simple as that.
The tankie thing keeps pushing me away from lemmy, but lemmy seems to be the only software getting clients at the moment. So I'm torn. I want an iOS client badly, but I don't want to support tankies.
I suppose I shouldn't sell out for a nice app though.
what is a tankie?
Authoritarians, primarily communists.

Kbin just sounds cooler, dude.
I mean, lemmy - that's just lame with extra steps. Eww. Yuck. Yucky. Not cool. Actual cringe, tbh. ๐คข
Kbin. That's like cool-beans, dude. Actually rad. And based. ๐
Who doesn't want to be cool? I tell you, nerds, that's who. Do you want to be a nerd? Didn't think so.
Checkmate. Try proving me wrong (pro-tip: you can't)
