Youtube removed the view counter, please add it back! #176

Closed Shadownite64 closed 10 months ago

Recently youtube made a change to shorts in which views were removed from the shorts description page, it used to show how many views the short got, but yet again youtube removed another statistic counter that some people may want to know, whats worse is that if you dig through the creators channel to find the short you JUST WATCHED, you can see how many views it got, can you please add the view counter back in the description on shorts or at least have it on the video like with the upload date.

It isnt feasible (or at least, not in the scope of this project) to add a view count unless its somewhere on the page.

Though maybe its just been moved and is still present. Worth looking into

actually I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate of #173
