I created two accounts on two different instances and all the communities I see have different subscriber counts depending from which account I look. Why does that happen and how can I see the real subscriber count?

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but here’s how I understand it:
Say you have two instances A and B that are federated together, and you have a community C in B.
If you look at C from within B, the subscriber count will give you the number of subscribers from B and will ignore the ones from other instances.
If you look at C@B from within A, you will see this time the number of subscribers who have their accounts on A.
Why did you formulate it so complex? 😂
The subscribers are from your local instance. The end.
math nerds always love introducing notation 😁
But is this true?
If member 1@A subscribes to B/c/C instead of A/c/C then will B’s subscriber count include 1@A?
If that’s true you would have to say: The subscribers displayed are those subscribed to that instance, regardless of where their account exists.
Which would mean the most accurate count would be the original community.
Is there a way then to see all subscribers from all instances?
