Quick question, I’m looking to make an Mbin account and just wanted to ask if there is any lemmy.ml type of situation to be aware of.

What exactly happened for the name to be changed from Kbin to Mbin? I missed that plot point.
Mbin is a fork of Kbin. A lot of users have moved from Kbin instances to Mbin, as the Kbin dev has had some personal life issues that have interfered with his ability to reliably work on the project.
Mbin is a community fork of Kbin. Even while Kbin was still a thing it was already much faster in making changes & additions than Kbin and by now Kbin & Kbin.social is basically dead.
Mbin is a fork that was startend to add some stuff the original Kbin dev didn’t like. These days it seems Kbin is dead though, so basically Mbin is the new Kbin.
