Subscriber Numbers, are they instance based? (sh.itjust.works)

Hello! I’m newer to Lemmy and trying to figure out all the communities. I found a page where I can browse communities (https://browse.feddit.de/), but the subscriber numbers on that site are totally different than what I see when I search for the community in Wefwef.

For example, this community shows a subscriber count of over 17k on the site above, but when I search in Wefwef, I see a much smaller subscriber count. Why is it different? Is Wefwef only counting subscribers on my instance?

Thanks for any information?
