Currently, lemmyverse.net doesn't appear to be indexing mbin servers, which is a drawback for finding communities on them. It isn't indexing all kbin servers, either, and the kbin results are only available via the hamburger menu, not mixed in with the lemmy results.

Mbin is not lemmy. It interoperates with lemmy but is otherwise different. Thus they strictly should not. Though you can make an arguement they should, it is the decision of the site owners and so while I think they should index mbin I won't fault them for not.

Mbin is not lemmy.

No, but how many users out specifically want results from one instance type? I can imagine that someone might, but I'm pretty sure that virtually everyone is agnostic.

I don't think that the lemmyverse.net guys are opposed to it. They did put in kbin support (though it seems to be partly broken ATM). I just think that it hasn't been updated. And that makes it hard for mbin communities to get visibility.
