At least with Lemmy and Kbin, if you have a feature you want to have implemented you always have the option to fork and host your own instance. Maybe not ideal for everyone, but the option is there.

This has happened to Kbin with the fork Mbin due to inactivity from the main Kbin maintainer. It’s not ideal that a project goes stale, but life happens and we must respect that.
