One example: It could be a relay feature, that counts the downloads of a note, and can send it as an extra information to clients. But I guess it shall be anonymized for privacy purposes.

I dunno hard to make sense of this
Sorry, wrong perspective.
I am thinking of a new field next to zaps.
So you would have comment, like, zap, "impression count". This would be a number which shows you how many people saw your post.
Amethyst already has something like this.
Not a fan of that metric. Still doesn’t solve the acknowledgment issue.
I guess there is a difference between seeing and saying you seen something.
Somehow the second conveys a meaning from the person who says he saw it.
The first is an information for the author how many people reacted from the people who saw it.
So the second one has a "deeper" meaning. But then it shall not be a like, but rather something else to show the difference for usage, maybe? Not sure.
Yeah. Twitter (I think) and Reddit have that. When you post you can see how many viewed the post.
That’d be interesting to see, but probably not scalable. We can’t even get an accurate subscriber count, so getting an accurate count for every single note across every single relay might be challenging.
