So I just ran into this problem and I was wondering if anyone knew the lemmy software well enough to answer this. I’m seeing different stats on communities depending on which instance I view it from, and I don’t know what the true statistics are.

Using a community I moderate ( /c/maliciouscompliance@lemmy.world ) as an example:

If i view the sidebar from this link: https://lemmy.world/c/maliciouscompliance

It says 91 users / day, 143 users / week, 2.19K subscribers

But if I view it from this link: https://lemmy.ml/c/maliciouscompliance@lemmy.world

It says 42 users / day, 85 users / week, 45 subscribers.

I’m assuming the user count is based on that specific instance, and subscriber count when viewing from another instance is based on subscribers from that instance only (so 45 subscribers using lemmy.ml accounts). But is the subscriber count from the “home” instance the true aggregation of all subscribers across the fediverse, or subscribers from that instance?
