But the view count tracks everyone who enters a stream no matter what as a view at the end. For example here is a stream I had a few days ago, ended at over 3k views, but a viewer amount topping at 760. Average view duration was only 7m so a lot of people click on, and leave after a few minutes.
I do often click into those type of streams, watch a few minutes, and then go about my day. So while the CCV is weird, I don't think its as bad as people think.
