View count not shown in Watch Later

View count not shown in Watch Later, only in Subscriptions. How to get view count to show in Watch Later and everywhere else?

[absidue]

You don't. FreeTube is an app that runs directly on your computer and your playlists along with subscriptions etc are stored on your machine. As it is completely unreasonable to retrieve the information for every video each time you open your playlists, FreeTube saves the information for each video when you add that video to the playlist. We don't save the view count when you add a video to a playlist because it would be outdated almost immediately so the information would be useless.

So to summarise FreeTube is working as expected and this is not a bug.
