Possible community stats bug
(programming.dev)
I’ve discovered a possible bug in how wefwef is parsing or displaying community statistics. For example, at the time of this writing, c/science at lemmy.ml shows the following stats in their sidebar:
Users / day: 12 Users / week: 54 Users / month: 157 Users/ 6 months: 244 Subscribers: 8.27k Posts: 1.23k Comments: 1.29k
As the screenshot of the sidebar in wefwef shows, only the “users / day” stat is correct. Wefwef shows 80 subscribers rather than 8.27k.
Exactly. I kept getting the feeling that there are barely any users on Lemmy. This does almost no good. It's ok to show both but not only the instance's numbers.
