>>6756588no there isn't, that anon read second-hand information from a fucking blog, which talks only about short videos and not streams, and headacannons his own bull shit for the rest.
The only official thing we have is that for short videos you count as a view if you watched for at least 30 seconds. But if you dont watch the full length, multiple refreshes will only add up to your total watch time.
Once you reached the full length, even with skipping or refreshing, then you start counting as multiple views, max 5 times a day to stop bots abuse.
It wont count you as multiple views with just 30 seconds views also again to stop the same bots abuse.
