Updated Aug 29

Bacteriocins will be back! Discovered in 1925, bacteriocins are compounds produced by bacteria affecting other bacteria. They are used in bio-production, fermentation, preservation, antibiotics, gene editing plasmids, and cloning.  Bacteriocins will fight against resistant adapting pathogens, including plant and insect viruses, on all microbe battlefields as our traditional antibiotics become less effective. The Lilliput World of Microbiology is coming into better focus.

r/bacteriocins — frequently asked

How many members does r/bacteriocins have?

Is r/bacteriocins growing?

We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/bacteriocins yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 29; the chart fills in as history accumulates.

How active is r/bacteriocins?

Around 0.1 posts per day, measured from the newest 69 posts on Reddit, which span 672.0 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/bacteriocins created?

r/bacteriocins was founded in October 2024 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/bacteriocins?

Of the last 69 posts we sampled, 1.4% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Aug 26. 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/bacteriocins?

We don't have a promo-tolerance read for r/bacteriocins 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.

How do I monitor r/bacteriocins for mentions?
