Perhaps its staring me right in the face and I cannot see it but where do I find my photo count on flickr?
 
Go to your Photostream page and it's displayed top-right. :)

Thanks for that Trevor, but there's no photo count anywhere for me. Is it just a Pro thing now?

No, it still shows on mine and I've let my Pro lapse (still waiting on one of their offers).

Here you go:

How strange? You're not using something made by Apple by any chance? ;)

Steve, when on Flickr click on your small avatar in the very top right right of a page and it should show.

It's not working right on Safari, but, I am running the Monterey Beta, so that might explain it.
 
Reading this thread prompted me to check my photo count. If I go to my Profile page, it's 17,405. If I go to my Albums page, it's 17,433 photos, as it is on all the other pages.

Of course, I'm using "something by Apple". Safari on the Mac. The count doesn't show at all on the iPad, which is annoying.

Not at all, they just don't play that nicely with MS products. Saying that, I run Libre Office on my Pi, and that's great.

I own a Mac. They're a little bit like having a cat - you just kid yourself you're in charge.

I hear that a lot, but the trouble is they don't. When something goes wrong it's never an easy fix and I've been fixing and building computers since the Apple II in the late seventies.

I've had Mac's for the last 12 years or so, and not one has failed. In fact, my first iMac is still used by my son, although it's mainly a web browser for his kids. My 2014 MBP is still going strong, my wife uses it daily and it still runs LR & PS well enough for me to take on holiday. Various Windows machines have fallen by the wayside after just 2 or 3 years of use.

What people fail to understand is that they're different. I've was building machines when 16GB of RAM and 40GB HDD were considered leading edge. I've sold computers & IT services for 20 years. Yes they're expensive, but in my experience, they are better value.

As well as spending far too many years with computers, I spent almost as many fixing TVs and VCRs too. I had loads of customers that swore B&O stuff was so much superior and would spend up to ten times the price for that badge. What was inside when I showed them after they'd broken down? TVs - Phillips and VCRs - Hitachi. :ROFLMAO:

Apple's marketing is outstanding - their kit is quite the opposite in my experience and just about every electronics engineer I've know over the last thirty years would say the same - except the ones that use Apple products of course. :rolleyes:

Anyway, this has nothing to do with Flickr or the OP, so I'll ignore any further comments on the subject.

"Yawn"... The truth of the pudding is in the eating.... Those that actually use the stuff know from experience.

I believe the difference in the two numbers will be equal to the total number of uploaded photos that are not on public view.


Re. the Apple debate - you will never find an Apple repair shop or any online post asking advice on an Apple product that ain't working right ;).

If you spend as much money on PC hardware as the equivalent Apple hardware costs, the likelihood is that it will be as good. For many years, the biggest problem with PCs was the Windows OS - combine that with people people buying cheap/shoddy hardware and it's easy to see where the myth that "Macs just work" comes from. The rate at which most consumers replace stuff either because of industry-enforced obsolescence or because they must have "the latest" makes a lot of it irrelevant imho.

While your initial information was spot on, it's a shame the rest wasn't, although you're correct that shoddy under-spec'd hardware is the main problem with windows computers.
