One potential downside is that the subscriber number actually is just the people who subscribe to that community from your instance and not all instances. This will need a patch from Lemmy itself to fix. As it is it’s a bit misleading, like maybe one Android community seems bigger, but actually it’s just more people from the instance you are using, and not more people overall - there is no current way to know.

That makes it tough to find the biggest communities. I wonder if they(Lemmy) are working on this.
Second. Like the idea. Here is how wefwef/Voyager does it.
Ability to sort by subscriber count too would be nice.
there is a feature request for this on GitHub
yea i added it a couple days ago. Would be great if they implemented something to that effect.
Results used to have this but search was rewritten without it. Maybe planned again?
