This could possibly go under the Bug catigory.

I’m unsure if it functions this way, but when something is posted, does the user that posted affect the view, or interaction of it, when they click on it. I.E. if I load my feed, does it add to an interaction? If I click on a post I created to check replies, etc., does it add to this? If a video starts playing, does it increase the number of views when I’m the one who posted it? It seems strange to allow the original creator the ability to affect any of these types of statistical tracking, simply by trying to review and check the statistics and interactions themselves. If this is not how it functions, then I do apologize for my lack of knowledge regarding this inquiry, but from my experience, it does seem like the interactions with things I create, on this platform, actually give a false representation of events, as my interactions inflate the baseline to some degree.
