It counts. Why would it not count? It is a visa.
And unless you are married to a British citizen, you don't qualify for citizenship yet.

Thank you for that!
To clarify, I have lived in the UK since 2015, first on TIER 4 GENERAL from 2015-2019, then the Tier 4 DES period, then 2 years of skilled worker visas, then Global Talent and then ILR. I will very soon have had ILR for one year. So are you saying that the Tier 4 and Tier 4 DES does not count towards the 5 year period for citizenship (which includes one year of ILR?) ?
