I use CS every day and log where I finished each day in spreadsheet. All to say that I am pretty close to where I am in the overall street count as it drives me regularly. Today something strange happened. My activity showed I completed 9 streets, yet the overall street count only went up 2. Is there a lag between these two components on the site?
Here is my profile:
26 Dec 2024 Streets: 4828
27 Dec 2024 Activity: 9 streets
27 Dec 2024 Streets: 4830
Your runs are hidden, so I can’t see for sure, but I think that the total numbers only counts streets in ”parent” cities, not the nested cities. That is to avoid double counting. Consider street X in city A. It runs through nested cities Aa and Ab. In your daily runs you might complete Aa one day, then Ab the next say. So your count in your daily runs would be two, which is not really correct. The total is still only one, street X in city A
This does make sense to me - thank you Hans. I’ll also try to figure out how to make my activities visible (thought they were). Do you know if this can be managed on CS or do those permissions defer to Strava’s permissions?
I don’t think you can make your activities visible now if you are using Strava. I think it’s an outcome of the recent changes to Strava’s “privacy” policy.
