I personally like the idea of knowing how many people have viewed my posts. Even if it's only shown for the person who posted the question

Codidact is already wasting a lot of storage space in the edits history2 and who knows what else, let's please not request unnecessary space waster features until the not-for-profit is already set up and the cash flow is demonstrated sustainable.

1: Temporary.
2: By storing (for each edit) both the state-before and the state-after edit.

A single number column is a very small amount of space. Even if you add it to 200 tables, it's insignificant. Incomparable to something like edit history, which is X number of large Strings

Let's lobby against unnecessary editing until the edit history is optimized.

The edit history is unrelated

Couldn't you use something like Git for revision history?

Storage space or payment thereof is not an issue for Codidact currently.
