Yeah, it's fair question! The view count metrics act right, in that there aren't any sharp discontinuities and many US-focused accounts (i.e. not Elon and Trump) have slower increases overnight and faster increases during the day in the US.

This was actually one of my research questions for this project: do view count stats over time make sense? And they do! Elon's follow a very consistent pattern. US-centric less-popular figures' view count growth slows overnight and accelerates during awake hours.

This one is not actually all that exciting! This is from an examination of TikTok. The x-axis is something like "average proportion of video watched" (I don't totally remember; old chart) and so the big cluster is regular videos and the lil cluster on the left is ads... which on average people skip.
