Subscriber count is kind of a bad metric.

How about floatplane subs?

Cause it looks like that over the past 36 hours they've lost >3000 subs there... which IIRC is a paid service.

Edit: Another way to look at how much they've lost is ~10%

where did this data come from?

You can view the current sub count if you have a floatplane account (even if you're not subbed to them). This appears to match the number I see on their profile. So I would presume it scrapes their site for it.

Makes sense, thanks!
