    Are Lemmy and Kbin two different pieces of software that do mostly the same thing? Kind of how you can open a PDF file with Acrobat or any number of other PDF viewers?

      Kind of, they are different aggregators for content on the fediverse. There are others too like Mastodon for microblogging like Twitter, or Diaspora for social media like Facebook. For all of these, the actual posts are created using the ActivityPub protocol, so they are interoperable. Lemmy and Kbin are just more similar than the other ActivityPub apps
