This can be seen even on opening or reloading my own profile , it needs improvement.
@antonkomarev commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
Yes, this is how it should work. Every time you refresh page - counter will increment. It's not unique visitors count, it's views count.
@antonkomarev commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
GitHub proxies images thru the
camo.githubusercontent.comdomain, so you we don't have any way to check if it's new user or somebody who already seen your profile today. All requests to counter comes from camo server. The only thing we could track is request timestamp.@rahuldkjain commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
Gotcha! So we can't limit the visit count per IP .
@antonkomarev commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
Nope. IPs are always the same.
@antonkomarev commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
This is both good and bad. Bad - we can not build more detailed statistics. Good - these statistics 100% anonymous.
@antonkomarev commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
@rahuldkjain you've done nice generator tool! Good job!
@rahuldkjain commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2020):
Thanks @antonkomarev. To be honest I found this counter very useful and used it to develop a github-profile-readme-generator tool.
