Hello fellow kbin enjoyer! In case you were unaware, in-line kbin images only show in kbin for some reason. Kinda like how we get links in place of in-line Lemmy images, except Lemmy users don’t even see the links (at least not in the default mobile web UI or Voyager app). To get around it, I will either copy and paste the image URL in a comment edit, or just make the reply from a Lemmy account.
Now I’m wondering if the desktop interfaces work differently.
e: in case anyone is curious about the differences:
I’m with you. I don’t like the default Lemmy UI at all, but it’s the most feature-complete as far as I can tell. I was a longtime Apollo user, so while Voyager feels similar at first glance it’s mostly skin-deep. Kbin really does a great job with the look and feel, but there are a lot of frustrating bugs. I believe the dev has Been Going Through Some Shit (per his posts in kbinMeta) and I do not begrudge him taking care of personal life before a side project that blew up over the summer. So the result is that I mostly browse with kbin and switch to Lemmy if I need to do more than a text reply.

Man, every day I learn something else about kbin that sucks, and yet, I still hate the Lemmy interface even more.
