They’re both built on ActivityPub and look very similar, but Kbin is talked about like an alternative to Lemmy instead of an instance of it. Is it a fork? Why is it better or worse?

I think Kbin is a shortened version of ‘karabin’ (polish for carbine/rifle) - the name of the polish instance
That would explain the magazine nomenclature.Edit: Ernest clarified here. Karab.in was just a play on words. Kbin is actually referencing Linux terminology.
