I honestly wonder where are the users, every very subreddit that I used to follow practically has only 200 or less subscribers.
Something I realized: If you visit a community on a different server, it doesn't show all subscribers. Like on Feddit.de, it tells me that there are 993 subscribers for this very community. But if I visit lemmy.ml/c/memes it shows that the community has over 18k+ subscribers. Maybe it only shows the subscribers from your own instance? Like 993 People from Feddit.de are subscribed to this community? No idea.
Oh and a lot of bots too.
It only shows the subscribers from your own instance I think; all the communities I've subscribed to on my personal instance shows 1 sub (being me)
I hope this changes in the future... something like 98(9.1k), meaning the first number is the local instance and in brackets are global.
