I created a new local community recently, and it immediately had 45 subscribers. When I say immediately, I mean like programmatically upon creation. These were not even local subs, but rather subscribers from other instances.
What would cause this? Is it something to be concerned about?

Content only federates when at least 1 user is subscribed to the community. It is bots from across the fediverse who have subbed and thus making your community more easily discoverable to their users.
