Topic: Localizable sentences

On 24 October 2022 I started a thread in the Serif Affinity Share your work forum.

https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index. … galleries/

There were some posts, most from me, one from Alfred, until 28 October 2022.

Alfred added a Follow request to the thread.

Yesterday evening, 24 November 2022, I added another post to the thread, and added an attached file.

I opened the file from the forum as a check that it had uploaded correctly, so that check was listed as a download.

I noticed that the tread had 464 views at that time. The number remembere because it reminded me of the 4-6-4 wheel arrangement of a famous locomotve.

Anyway, earlier today I looked at the Serif Affinity forum and I noticed that the number of views of the thread was 540.

Quite an increase.

Yet only a total of 2 looks at the attached file, one of which was my checking of the upload.

So I am wondering why of all of those looks at the thread, only one person has looked at the attached file.

I might be missing something that some others find obvious.

I know it might be lack of interest, but the people who have opened the thread would have been aware of its title. So maybe lots of other people saw the title and chose not to look at the thread at all.

I automatically follow a thread when I post to it, so I only have to explicitly submit a Follow request if I want to follow a thread without posting.

Oh, I didn't realize that.

Re: Localizable sentences

Well, no more downloads, no more replies by others in the Affinity thread.

Yet the number of views of the thread continues to soar.

So I have posted a transcript of the contents of the file and some notes about it.
