I just looked at the stats quick and it's somewhat insightful.
Dogs has the most subs (3.4k), but only gets a post every 2-3 days, so not as many daily users (42).
Opossums has about half the subs (1.9k) , posts once or twice a day, and has over 500 daily users, which I don't know if I've ever gotten...great for them!
Bats and Raccoons fall in the middle of those numbers.
I'm killing it in total comments though and have more subs than all but Cats, which has an outstanding almost 18k. Out of 50k users, that is pretty dang impressive. I'd like to think at least a quarter of my subs are due to the work I put in, but I assume most of them came looking for a clone Reddit group.
Does any of it mean anything? Probably not. I'm glad to see them have a chance to shine. I like all the animals anyway. I enjoyed my ride on the first page of communities during Owl of the Year and picked up a lot of new subs during that, and I hope they make the most of it too. I don't know how hard it is to find new and unique pics of some of those animals day in and day out though. Again though, I feel that would make Dogs higher up as many people can just glance down and see a dog! I guess Lemmy folk are just cat people.
