View counts (also called impressions on some platforms) are not reported uniformly across social platforms. Each platform has its own rules for what data it exposes through its API.
Jump to the platform you're asking about:
- Facebook — why Page Insights may be unavailable
- Instagram — why views are missing on feed photos
- Pinterest — why new Pins can take time to report impressions
- LinkedIn and Bluesky — platforms without view counts in solnk

"—" vs "0"
A dash (—) means solnk couldn't retrieve view data for that post (see reasons above). A zero (0) means the platform confirmed the post was seen zero times. They're different.
