I created two accounts on two different instances and all the communities I see have different subscriber counts depending from which account I look. Why does that happen and how can I see the real subscriber count?

    If you look at C from within B, the subscriber count will give you the number of subscribers from B and will ignore the ones from other instances.

    It’s always been my belief that when viewing a community on the community’s home server, you see the global subscriber count including both subscribers on that instance and federated subscribers. That count is always bigger than the count on any subscribing instance, which only makes sense if the community’s instance counts federated subscribers.
