Where can you see that number?

On both old and new Reddit, I can no longer find the visitor count.

on PC in the subreddit on the side it'll say "active users her now" or something like that (depends on the sub).

on mobile it'll show at the top how many users.

That's completely missing for me on desktop, on both old and new Reddit.

Though I found it on mobile, so thanks.

What exactly did you find on mobile? I'm not finding it on mobile either.

Mobile does say "730k MAGAts, 13.8k contributions" -- but that's stats for the last week, not now.

Here is what I see when I go to this sub vs that sub, right next to the sub name on mobile.

Weird -- can't argue with that!

Here's what I see, and yet when I go to respond to you I see this at the top of my screen, which sort of seems like the same thing, but 75 people instead of 4444? That can't be measuring the same thing, not just a few minutes apart.

Yeah, that is weird.

I don't get anything like that when I click reply, there's nothing but a reply box for me.

If you're on mobile, are we talking the official app or the mobile web broswer?

Android or Apple?

I'm using the official app on Android.

That's the only thing I can think of that would make a difference...

In my case, the official Apple app.

Huh, maybe that's why.

Reddit's official app is shitty enough that that wouldn't surprise me lol.

For me, after 20-30 minutes of browsing the Android Reddit official app starts having errors and you need to swap apps or turn off your screen for a minute or you can't comment or open any posts.

(Which I actually kinda like as I can squint at it and pretend it's a built-in reminder to take a screen break lmfao.)
