Bug showed 9x inflated numbers for 3 months - need advice

[Navya]

So I recently built a feature that shows real-time views in a community app. There was a bug that displayed 9x views to the audience... The numbers were so high that the founders and product team gave the green light. Today, after two months of the project being shipped, I discovered the numbers were actually 3x lower... PS: It was 3x, not 9x :p

Umm. You always need to verify data. You can't just trust a number; you need to look at unique users, etc.

Just push a fix, don't tell anyone. Mask it with other updates, etc.

This is very common at my work. The analytics are messed up. Not a big deal, imo, if it wasn't a serious feature.

[Shruti]

Reduce that multiplier by 1 every week.

Ai guys

[Vaishali]

Why do I get a feeling that the whole feature was vibe-coded from BAs to devs to testers.

[Anupama]

It's better to come clean rather than let someone else discover it.

I knew it!! JioHotstar was lying to me about the IPL views!!
