I open same community directly on Lemmy.world and via feddit.de. Number of subscribers are very different.

Why?

A bit late, but the number of subscribed users a community has you see on one instance is the number of subscribers to said community on this specific instance.

E.g. On this fitness community, there is 1.1k subscribers that come from lemmy.world, and 18 that come from feddit.de.

You can see the real amount of subscribers a community has on the Lemmy Community Browser.

Yes, still thank you. How does the browser calculate the total? Does it really asks every single instance and calculate the sum?
