What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy? (feddit.nl)

I see a very small minority of people using Kbin, but I don't understand why.

Is this just a coincidence and did some people choose Kbin over Lemmy or is there a good reason to use Kbin?

Yep, although it's almost been a year since the request so I don't know how high it's priority wise.

Since the question was why people use Kbin that is a big one for now, at least for me although I have an account there I just prefer lemmy since Kbin seems to be too much on its infancy and also the fact that because it doesn't have an open API as of now, there are (almost) no apps developed.

Given the massive uptake in the last month I'm hoping a lot of old issues are now being looked at!
