Anybody else think Vine loop-counts are worthless?
I mean, the fuckin’ things auto-play on sites like Tumblr and Facebook whether you’re actually paying any attention to them or not and they continue to loop even after you scroll past. I unmuted one just now and kept scrolling, ignoring the sound until it became annoying, at which point I scrolled way back up and paused it. That must have been a dozen or more plays and they mean nothing because I only actually watched it 1.5 times.
I dunno I just think it’s kinda pointless and silly that they even keep track. YouTube makes more sense, but not Vine.
