Are community stats accurate?

3 years ago by eezeebee to c/main

I'm wondering how my community has 10 subscribers, but only shows 2 users in the past 6 months (the community is less than 1 month old).

How did users subscribe without visiting? Are they bots? Am I misunderstanding how these stats work?

A lot of the users on here just lurk and don't participate in discussions. That's how you get a community with 10 or 20 subscribers and only a couple of active members that actually contribute.
