![]() ![]() Do the math and try to explain the increased momentum in current viewership. for an average of a million views every two years. 2022, after it took Joni and me 8 long years to reach 4,000,000 views. Joni somehow generated an additional million more views in less than 5 months since last September 13. Meanwhile, the apparent pace of her viewership has quickened noticeably. Now I don't necessarily subscribe to this conspiracy theory, but I don't discount it out of hand either.Īll I know is that I am gradually approaching a tipping point in my relationship with Flickr in which I currently have posted over 900 photos on Flickr and only have room for posting less than 100 more before Joni's amateur status expires at the 1000 mark. The idea seems to be to lure an unsuspecting Flickr gal into upgrading to a pay-for-play PRO account, by tricking her into thinking she needs to post more photos to meet the insatiable demands of an adoring mass of anonymous admirers who don't really exist. They not only claim the algorithms are faulty, but further allege they are possibly even being intentionally manipulated by the Wizards of Flickr to create more excitement where very little actually exists. It is said by many in the know that Flickr uses algorithms, whatever the hell they are, ( I'm a lover, not a mathematician, although I did score a 670 in math on my SAT tests in high school.) I'm told that Flickr uses the algorithms to estimate, rather than to actually count, the number of views on any particular photo. I have read elsewhere on various locations on Flickr where many women on Flickr have reported grossly inflated viewership numbers on some of their photos that don't correspond with the small number of comments and Favorites that such seemingly popular photos might normally expect to generate. However, there is one aspect of this achievement that I find to be a bit sobering and disappointing. Once again, Joni and I wish to thank all those viewers who have made this a reality. ![]() ![]() This, of course, is a major milestone and very validating for someone who never dreamed she could attract this much attention. FebruJoni received notice that she and I had reached the 5,000,000 mark in views on January 31, 2023. ![]()
