Can't really make apps for a site that doesn't have an API. They did announce recently that Kbin's API is nearly done, so soon there'll be a flood of Kbin apps as well, and support for Kbin in all of the Lemmy apps too

@Nitrate55 I can't wait to be able to use Kbin on the go, I'm really gonna have nothing be done at that point

I do most of my kbin browsing on my phone using good old firefox.

It isn't perfect, but definitely works well enough until a dedicated mobile app comes out.

Very much doubt. I'm sure many will but not all. The API isn't identical so they'd have to commit to maintaining both.

Yeah I suppose not all of them will want to commit to supporting Kbin, but some definitely will. Honestly though, so long as it's possible to search for and subscribe to Kbin magazines from Lemmy, that's all I really care about.
