      “Less” is correct. “Less” had been used synonymously with “fewer” to denote countables for centuries before the contrivance of a distinction, and that usage has continued on despite some’s insistence of one.

      Unless you are writing in some professional or technical sense that demands “fewer” instead, “less” is fine.

        Thanks team, we did it. Brain no good with the thoughts of thoughts, but the record of such has been great success.
