Where do these stats come from? Is there anywhere I can track the growth of a community I made? Because one gained about 100 subscribers this month and it’s never appeared here.

They come from lemmyverse.net (specifically the JSON file that’s provided every 6 hours at data.lemmyverse.net)
If you want to track growth yourself, you’d need to do what the bot does, and download that file every time.
As for your community, are you talking about ‘Nowhere else to share’? ('cos that’s appeared loads - last Thursday and Friday, for example)

I was referring to that one. I guess I miss some of these posts. Thanks for the info!

It’s alright. It didn’t sound like that. I don’t mind investigating if the bot is misbehaving (and I occasionally get the satisfaction of finding out that it’s not)
