Merge in what way? In terms of user interaction, they already are merged. Lemmy users can comment and make threads in kbin communities and vice versa.

And in terms of underlying codebase, there isn't anything to merge. Lemmy and kbin are written in two very different programming languages. Trying to unify them would mean huge amounts of effort for no tangible gain.
