So in just one week, we’ve grown to >7k subscribers (~5.3k on lemmy.world and ~1.2k from the next 5 largest instances), which is way more than I expected.
I’ve been modding this community alone, and it’s been fine - we haven’t had many issues so far - but I should start looking for mods before any issues arise.
If you have an interest in modding, please message me or comment below, and I’ll reach out to you!
EDIT: thanks everyone who responded, I’ve got enough responses now!
I use Jerboa sometimes too. There are a few statistics on the sidebar when you view it on the website, including subscribers and active users. I don’t know for sure, but I assume subscribers refer to people who click on subscribe, while active users refer to the number of people who have posted in the sub. For some reason, Jerboa only shows active users and not subscribers.
700+ active users looks about right to me though - as with reddit, there’s bound to be a large majority of lurkers.
