    Is “how many people from your own instance subscribe” even a useful metric? I don’t see what value it brings, I don’t care how many people on there happen to also come from my instance, I just want to know which instance has the most active version of this community.

        What do you mean by “established” though? Is a community with 80 people from my instance and 500 more across all other instances less established than one with 250 people from my instance and 30 more across all other instances? If so, how? Legitimate question - I’m new here and it’s possible there’s a good reason to care, but I can’t see one.
