It is not Lemmy or kbin, it is the fediverse. (kbin.social)
I don't think many people understand that if they use Lemmy or kbin, they are posting to the fediverse. There are other platforms and will be more to come. Referring to a post on "Lemmy" or "kbin" is like saying you saw a post on your Windows or Mac computer....

Reddit removes my post about how Reddit doesn't accept my GDPR request (lemm.ee)
