Read from r/analytics’s published rules on May 28. Communities change their rules without notice and enforce requirements (karma, account age, flair) that may live in the sidebar or automod rather than here — the source page is the authority.

r/analytics — frequently asked

How many members does r/analytics have?

r/analytics has 281,804 members as of our most recent crawl on Sep 10. 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/analytics growing?

Over the last ≈33 days r/analytics changed by +1.4% — a gain of 3.9K members. We compare against the nearest snapshot we actually hold and state the real span rather than rounding it to a clean "30 days".

How active is r/analytics?

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

When was r/analytics created?

r/analytics was founded in February 2010 and is a public — anyone can post community. Age matters: an older community with steady growth has survived Reddit's moderation churn; a young one with a spike may not.

Can I promote my product in r/analytics?

r/analytics publishes 4 rules and 2 of them address promotion. The first, “Blog Spam”, says: Please share your knowledge without linking to your blog. Read the full rule text on this page and the community's rules page before posting — moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.

How do I monitor r/analytics for mentions?

Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/analytics into your Dataset — every new post indexed and embedded, searchable semantically, queryable by your AI agent over MCP, and able to trigger keyword alerts in Slack. Prowlo is read-only; it never posts on your behalf.

Can my AI agent read r/analytics's stats?

Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/analytics's members, growth, promo tolerance and similar communities as typed JSON — free, no credits. Connect your agent to api.prowlo.com/mcp and it can vet the community and start watching it in the same conversation.
