How many members does r/Homebrewing have?

r/Homebrewing has 1,186,652 members as of our most recent crawl on Sep 20. 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/Homebrewing growing?

Over the last ≈35 days r/Homebrewing changed by +0.1% — a gain of 1.2K 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/Homebrewing?

Around 11.4 posts per day, measured from the newest 100 posts on Reddit, which span 8.7 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/Homebrewing created?

r/Homebrewing was founded in June 2008 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/Homebrewing?

Of the last 100 posts we sampled, 83% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Sep 20. 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/Homebrewing?

We don't have a promo-tolerance read for r/Homebrewing 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/Homebrewing for mentions?
