If you reload the page while viewing your own post the "views counter" is incremented
If you reload the page while viewing your own post the "views counter" is incremented. For a second I thought I was getting a lot of views but in fact it was just me editing my own post.
I guess it depends on what your definition of a "view" is. Is a view any page reload than the current implementation is correct. If your definition of a view that each view is connected to a unique user than this is not the correct implementation.
