I open same community directly on Lemmy.world and via feddit.de. Number of subscribers are very different.
Why?

yes. I assume that this is technically driven feature - an instance has information about local users subscribed to federated community and shows it. However, for me as a user this, at best, an is additional information.
Anyways, my "rant" is: the number is rather misleading and here we are guess what does it actually mean - we do not know. BTW, it could easily be that lemmy.world also shows local subscribers only.
