deegeese , 10 months ago Is this even answerable? You’d need to know all the servers federated with the parent server, and for all of those, know how many are subscribed. With the way federation works, I don’t think you can know all the downstream servers your post might flow into.

otter OP , 10 months ago Yea I wasn’t sure if it worked like RSS where you just send the posts out for whoever to catch, or if there’s some way for the home instance to count when a new person subscribes

Haui , 10 months ago But this makes the subscriber count kind of pointless imo. It’s kind of important to see how many people really subscribe.
