Serious Discussion Is this indicator of anything or is it just glitchy and expected? Imgur view count

[TangentLiny]

Recently I uploaded an image to Imgur, and have not shared it to anyone. I don't know if Imgur has some rule where they count your own view towards viewcount, but I noticed the image got 2 views. Is this indicative of anything?

Originally, it was 0 views, and about 3 minutes later, it became 2 views. I kept refreshing it for the past 15 minutes and keeping an eye on it, and it remained 2 views. So I know me spamming refresh on the page does not add views. So who are these 2 views? Maybe 1 view is me, who is the other one?

Can someone here do a test and see if this is replicable?

It's possible that one view was your own and the other could be from a bot, an Imgur employee, or just a random visitor who stumbled upon your image. Imgur is a public platform, so anyone can view images. It's not necessarily an indicator of a security issue. However, if you're concerned, you can always set your images to private.
