How these numbers are counted

A read
When you open a post, your browser tells the site once. The same person opening the same post again on the same day still counts as one read.
No cookies, no names
To tell readers apart for the day, the server mixes your IP address and browser type with a secret and keeps only the scrambled result. The mix changes every day, so nobody (me included) can follow you from one day to the next. Your IP itself is never saved.
Read depth
As you scroll, the page notes when you pass 25%, 50%, 75% and the end of the post. Only the furthest point is kept.
Where you came from
The site you clicked from (LinkedIn, X, Google…) and your country, worked out from your connection. Apps like WhatsApp don't say where a click came from, so share links carry a small tag instead.
What's left out
Search engines and other bots, link previews, and my own visits while I'm signed in. Shares count clicks on the share buttons, not what happens after.
