    I’ve always liked Kbin’s design and funcionality more than Lemmy, but the latter is more popular and sometimes posts/comments won’t load properly on Kbin, so I’ve stuck with Lemmy for now.

      Everyone in this thread is suggesting Mbin, so I might try that. Sounds like it’s a fork of Kbin that actually solved a ton of its federation issues with Lemmy.

                Maybe because Google doesn’t think it’s popular enough, I’ve noticed that too though. The search does work if you search the app id directly though, like one.jwr.interstellar.

                If you’re trying to login to your fedia account, I’ve noticed that server doesn’t seem to work (which is why it’s not in the recommended instances section). It’s probably an issue with how they setup the api (you’ll notice other mbin instances work with interstellar just fine).

                  Maybe @jerry knows what’s going on? Is it possible oauth client creation is restricted to admins on fedia?

                    Ok, I checked and creating new oauth clients is not restricted to administrators. I am trying to find a way to run interstellar so I can test and figure out what is wrong.

                  Is there a port of interstellar to Linux or Windows? Unfortunately I don’t have any android devices to test with.

                  Edit: never mind. I found them

                    That’s great! I’ll add it to the recommended instances section once I get a change.

      If you like Kbin’s design you may enjoy Alexandrite, a frontend for Lemmy
