Thank you for doing this, now I can more effectively manage my cat community subscriptions to get the perfect ratio of cat to everything else!
I must be clicking the lemmy link wrong. It’s giving a 404 error
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: !catsubs@kbin.social 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
I haven’t managed to get search to work. I can find this comment by searching !catsubs@kbin.social but the magazine doesn’t show up as its own result. I wonder if it has to do with me using my iPhone to access everything or if I am fundamentally misunderstanding something or if it’s just slow right now. Edit: it’s not just this magazine either that I’m failing to fetch

FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
