Looks like KBin has an edge over Lemmy now in terms of monthly active users.
It's obviously a pretty silly thing, and is not in any way indicative of which project is "better" or more "long-term viable" or anything — instances of both federate with one another, and with the rest of fedi, so it's all one happy family.
That said, it's notable. KBin is a relative newcomer to the "Reddit-like fedi instance" game, and also does not have the tankie baggage.
Anyway, the more, the merrier!

kbin.social currently has 20k + users. However is currently has federation disabled due to the traffic is receiving. Edit: It isn't 100k
It's a bit funny to be like "federation is what will make this great" and then "federation blows us up, so we're turning it off".
Yeah it's only temporary, they are on the process of moving to a bigger server
