Track Unique Views Instead of All Views

Jordi Kloosterboer

It can be misleading to have views be the number of total views. The count can include the same person opening up a post several times (or just refreshing the page of the post) and people can think those views are other people viewing the post. Therefore I think it might be more accurate to calculate views from logged in users. One downside to that is that a person does not need to be logged in to view an idea, at least right now, and so their view would not be counted until they signed in.
