How would you gauge someone's popularity on SW?

Is it profile views, amount of comments the user receives on posts, number of Friends/Followers (though this is sometimes hidden as is profile views)...

What is your formula?

No this is not a "popularity contest" question... I ask because I saw previous posts asking who the popular users are and I'm trying to understand HOW they come to their conclusions.

I don't gauge it, we are all equal here in my opinion

I'm of the opinion that this kind of talk is nonsense 🤷‍♀️

@SW-User Yeah the idea of those "popularity contest" type of posts are nonsense.. but I am simply asking HOW users gauge popularity of those they believe are popular.

@iMystery well yes, I understood that.. I guess I was just giving my opinion

I think views are based on how often and what a person posts
I think gifts are reciprocated generally so a person with 200 probably also gave out 200
But none of those things means a person is popular 🤷‍♀️

@SW-User True... I agree.
