I wasn't here before kbin's federation went down, but rather joined during that time with most everyone else. I do think the tone and "feel" between kbin and lemmy is similar for sure, and I think a lot of that is probably due to mutual ex-reddit culture. but while federation was down there was a lot of kbin users saying things like "it's a bit better like this because we build up a kbin culture, and understand things better" and "we can build up kbin communities so we're less reliant on other instances".

I think lemmy just ended up with the "everything reddit" culture, while kbin ended up with a more reserved technical reddit culture. Though that might just be my perspective (and not shared with others). But I can understand why beehaw defederated with lemmy and not kbin. even though it kinda feels like we're next lol.
