For those that don’t know, the subreddit r/Catsubs was made as a directory for all the many cat subreddits on reddit as well as a way for searching for different cat related subreddits.
I was noticing that more and more cat communities/magazines were popping up and it was getting tricky to find them all so I thought I’d recreate the Catsubs directory on Kbin!

This is unaffiliated with the subreddit, but I did talk to the subreddit mods and got the go ahead as they don’t currently have any plans for leaving Reddit.

I already have a pinned comment with all the cat communities/magazines I’ve found with a kbin.social link as well as the search link for Kbin and Lemmy for those on different instances.

Also anyone is welcome to make a thread if you are either looking for a cat community/magazine or if you find one that I don’t already have in the directory.

I’m still working on it but the basics are all good to go so come on over if you are looking for more cat communities/magazines!

    Thank you for doing this. I’m surprised to see a couple communities I mod already in the directory (I haven’t even told anyone about one of them yet - and it’s not yet synced with KBin). So your directory is very much up to date, good job! I can’t figure out how to subscribe to this magazine from my Lemmy account yet and I frankly find KBin hard to use, but I’m sure these are just growing pains of the Fediverse that will work themselves out over time

      If you search: [email protected] on Lemmy it should show up as a community you can subscribe to in Lemmy. Someone on your instance needs to manually search it for it to start federating, not sure how it works with pinned comments though. Hopefully those will eventually show up even though they were posted before federation started. If not bringing it up on Kbin and copying the link works too.

      I might need to create a Lemmy account just so I can learn more about how to use it, I’ve been using Kbin since last week and am really liking it so far
