Kyodo App Review — Honest Take
What Kyodo does well, what it's missing, and how it compares to Aminoka — the closer match to the original Amino.
Short take
Kyodo is a competent post-Amino community app. It's simpler than Amino was. If you want the full original-Amino experience back — leaders, level-ups, OCs, RP matchmaker, custom themes — Aminoka replicates more of that.

Aminoka: Built for Refugees of Amino
We built Aminoka because we were Amino users too. We saw what MediaLab did, watched the app we loved crumble, and decided to create something new — community first, not profits.
