r/NewTubers — frequently asked
How many members does r/NewTubers have?
r/NewTubers has 722,506 members as of our most recent crawl on Sep 3. 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/NewTubers growing?
Over the last ≈31 days r/NewTubers changed by +1.4% — a gain of 9.8K 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/NewTubers?
We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/NewTubers 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/NewTubers created?
r/NewTubers was founded in July 2012 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/NewTubers?
r/NewTubers publishes 11 rules and 3 of them address promotion. The first, “No Self Promotion”, says: This is **not** a place to dump your videos and leave! We are a Discussion-first community. We are here to help you learn, not to be your audience. You are only allowed to post links to your content in * The Weekly… 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/NewTubers for mentions?
Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/NewTubers 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/NewTubers's stats?
Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/NewTubers'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.
