Can #Friendica only count to 990 for some reason? A curious thing: I posted something that went relatively viral. I've received repeated notifications of more likes and reshares. But once the total number reached 990, i.e., the sum of shares and likes is 990, the numbers listed aren't going up any more, rather when one goes up, the other goes down. The sum remains 990. Curiouser and curiouser.

•Suppose you had 600 likes and 400 reshares (plus an unknown number of posts in excess of the 1000 selected). Two hours later you refresh and there are now 500 reshares - and 500 likes - visible. The missing 100 likes are now among the unknown number of posts beyond those selected (accounted for).
The math behind this performance trick is simple, but I agree the outcome looks bizarre. Or, maybe your friends are actually colluding, trading a share for a like 😉
