Brand-new burnable pasta already shows 2 views

Open HeCorr opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Describe the bug

When creating a burnable pasta, it instantly shows 2 views. This makes the Burn After: First Read setting useless since it'll be deleted instantly upon creation, before anyone else can see it.

To Reproduce

  1. Go to the Public Test Site: https://pub.microbin.eu/
  2. Set the Burn After option to 10th read
  3. Set the Privacy option to Unlisted (to eliminate the possibility of someone else's views being counted)
  4. Click the Save button.

Expected behavior

The view count would be at 0 because you've just created it and nobody has seen it yet.

Same here. Issue appears on the public demo server as well as on my private instance, This issue renders the burn after first read option useless unfortunately. Quick temporary workaround could be to allow a burn after 3 reads options.

the redirect should not count as read.. if you set it to 1 it is already burned when its redirecting after creating

This is still an issue 🤣, makes the entire feature pretty pointless.

Can still confirm the issue on my private instance.

Same here, this really does not make any sense to me
