Permissions
What permissions does the bot need exactly? I can't seem to get it to find messages. It works with server admin permission but obviously that isn't ideal
Solution:Jump to solution
So if reactions were added while the bot didn't have access to the channel, or before it was setup

Likely missing permission in that channel specifically
The everyone role has view channel and view message history in that channel. No other permissions
Are any other roles configured in that channel that the bot has
Nope. It’s just the general chat with those two specifically turned on and everything else default
What if you run utils recount on the msg
Curious. It works now. Maybe I didn’t give it enough time to get settled in a new server 🤣
Note the last bullet point in your screenshot
It doesn't recount reactions automatically
They only register when they're added

That makes sense. I assumed adding one extra reaction would make it recount
No, too expensive/discords api is too restrictive
Especially when you factor in settings that change what reactions actually count
Unfortunately I can’t remember exactly what I did this morning but at least everything seems good now. Thanks for the help!
