re: #735 Charles

Please find out how YouTube works. There’s no liberal conspiracy here. YouTube caches the view counters, and sometimes doesn’t update for hours. It’s not unusual at all.

I have my doubts based on these things: The raw video has a higher hit count than the popular one…. the oldest comment mentioning the pinned counter are over three hours old.

On the other hand, the most popular page has them at #4 already. That seems to be updating in a timely manner.

Maybe Google should hire you, because you’re a hell of a lot better at writing code that updates on the fly. And that’s not a facetious comment.
