How many members does r/3Dprinting have?

r/3Dprinting has 3,404,772 members as of our most recent crawl on Aug 7. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.

Is r/3Dprinting growing?

We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/3Dprinting yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 7; the chart fills in as history accumulates.

How active is r/3Dprinting?

We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/3Dprinting yet. Subscriber count alone is a poor guide to whether a community is active, so treat this one as unverified until the crawl accumulates more.

Can I promote my product in r/3Dprinting?

Our read on r/3Dprinting is high promo tolerance. It has a promo-friendly culture or a dedicated thread, but that still means being useful first. Always read the sidebar rules before you post; moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.
