@manton One of the worst things I used to encounter when I was in the working world was people coming over from one organization to another, and trying to bring their old ways of behaving/working to a new environment not geared for that. Micro.blog doesn't want to do "popularity-style" counting stats, yet people seem OK about asking for them. If you need counting stats, use the platforms that support them. Don't ask another platform to include them for your convenience if that's not the platform's MO.
