Looks like the admin for kbin.lol has some pretty valid gripes with the current status of Kbin. I have to agree, you can tell the platform is not up to speed at all.

Kbin looks visually great but the backend just isn’t there. Check out his statement, it’s worth the read.

    I am not saying that. Communities are not an issue. Issues are instances that have the same communities that are not connected.

    E.g. if there is an F1 community on lemmy.world and a different one on lemm.ee, it’s an issue

      There are many subreddits that serve the same purpose as well. They either become their own space with slight differences between their respective communities and rules, or one grows much larger and eventually eats up the other. This is normal, give it time. The advantage that the seperation brings is that if any one instance does a reddit and is no longer usable there can always be another to replace it.

          You’re probably wanting something like Reddit’s “multireddit” functionality. I know of this issue for Lemmy, with some links to related issues in the comments. Kbin has one here. That would allow multiple communities to look like a single one from the user’s perspective.
