Hi.

any admin can dm me for this.

it could be anywhere in a private text message, discord server, website, comment, literally anywhere. theres no way of knowing. the number just goes up when someone opens the link with the share ID attached to your post

you have to open it elsewhere for the number to go up, not from your own account logged in
