The Facebook and Twitter share counters aren’t working.

The Facebook and Twitter share counters aren’t working and haven’t been for months. I know that it isn’t just me, because I have discussed the problem with other users. We think it is time that WordPress fixes this issue.

Hi there!
It is not a WordPress issue.
Twitter is the one that stopped showing share counts on its embeddable buttons, a few years ago. A month ago or so, I stopped seeing the Facebook counts too, so I guess Facebook made the same decision…
Sorry :( -
Hi hitchcockmaster,
As @lalyyork mentioned, Twitter and Facebook made some changes on their end which have affected share counts.
For Facebook, please try going to My Site > Tools > Marketing > Sharing Buttons and choose Official Buttons (under Button Style) instead.
That may do the trick :)

I was able to fix the issue by switching to “official buttons.” Thanks so much for the help!
