[Bug] Number of members (feddit.uk)

The numbers of members shown on the communities page (top left in BoostforLemmy Android) are the number of members from that specific Lemmy server, rather than the total number of members in the community.

If its a bug the can we fix this and if its not a bug can we get the total number of members across all servers shown?

I'm pretty sure that's not a bug. That's how it is even on a browser. Now, maybe there's a way for the app to scrape the subscription numbers from each instance and display the sum.

This is an issue with Lemmy in general. They didn't respond to my feature request to recreate subscriber counts I made a couple months ago, sadly

Where did you make request? Post link here so maybe I and others can chime in...

They just closed it for being a duplicate of their own issue years ago https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1440

I think it happens when instances are not federated. Even upvotes and comments doesn't show up. On all apps it's the same though.

Thank you. In this case the bug would be my noob ass.
