How many side quests are in Tears of the Kingdom?

Tears of the Kingdom has 139 side quests. They sit on the Side Quests tab of the Adventure Log, which is separate from Main Quests, Side Adventures and Shrine Quests. Most are short favors for one character; a few, like the Misko treasure hunts, begin from a letter or a note instead of a person.
