Why isn't Mbin more popular? (fedia.io)

It has an excellent web layout/app (Interstellar) and has Mastodon baked in along with Lemmy. It's a very elegant catch all piece of fediverse software.

Probably just the timing. Mbin was forked from Kbin after the majority of newcomers from Reddit settled on Lemmy over Kbin. Because Kbin was pretty much the one-man show with an unreliable flagship instance during the initial big wave of users coming over.

Yep, reliability and popularity. There's still plenty of space for it. But I think piefed has kind of come in and sucked up all the extra oxygen in the room for the moment.
