So is there a place I can see the total subscribers for a community over all servers? Is that the number that shows when I visit a community on the server it was created on?
yes. The "home instance" of a community has the total subscribers list. But replication has been imperfect, especially in 0.18.1 and earlier. There were a lot of problems with stuck subscribe "pending" and lists not being accurate. And just a few days ago I was testing Lemmy's latest server code and found that a user deleting their account does not unsubscribe from the communities they follow... so the number can also be inflated.
Got it. Thanx
