You can use https://lemmyverse.net/ to check actual subscriber numbers.

Edit: Why YSK: New users of Lemmy can find the number low and think that a community is dead or inactive, when infact it might be a thriving place with a lot of activity.

    I haven’t looked into Lemmy/fediverse philosophy so I don’t know how viable it is, but I’d love to see some variant of “X subscribers total on known servers (y from local)” in the future.

    Well, I don’t really pay attention to and I’m sure they’ll make browser extensions at some point. So not even remotely close to a priority.

      I’d be happy to see it divided by total users in an instance; 21.7% of the users on bands.music are subscribed to Beatles, 1.3% are subscribed to Soundgarden, so on.
