I’m not talking about this from a marketing or influencer perspective—I just personally enjoy seeing post metrics like number of views, especially over time (like Reddit’s 48-hour view chart).
It gives a sense of whether a post is reaching people, even if it doesn’t get many comments or upvotes.
Curious if others feel the same, or if there’s a reason this hasn’t been implemented?
EDIT: Maybe have it so that there is an option in the user’s settings to turn the Analytics on/off?
Or, perhaps have it where instance owners can decide whether or not to allow the Analytics on their instance?
Yeah but I’m glad they’re not here.
I liked this stats but don’t like that I liked them. I shouldn’t feel so happy at number go up. Lemmy is way less adictive for me and I’m happy with it
Good question though
