How many members does r/AskRobotics have?
r/AskRobotics has 18,200 members as of our most recent crawl on Oct 11. 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/AskRobotics growing?
We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/AskRobotics yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Oct 11; the chart fills in as history accumulates.
How active is r/AskRobotics?
Around 7.4 posts per day, measured from the newest 100 posts on Reddit, which span 13.4 days. Posting rate matters more than subscriber count when you're deciding where to spend your time — it determines how long your comment stays visible.
When was r/AskRobotics created?
r/AskRobotics was founded in April 2023 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.
Who posts in r/AskRobotics?
Of the last 100 posts we sampled, 94% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Oct 11. A low share means a feed dominated by a handful of accounts (bots, mods, or one prolific poster) rather than a community.
Can I promote my product in r/AskRobotics?
We don't have a promo-tolerance read for r/AskRobotics yet. Default to the safe approach: read the sidebar rules, contribute in threads where you gain nothing, and mention your product only when it is the honest answer to someone's question.
