We passed the tipping point where bot traffic outnumbered human traffic fifteen years ago. LLMs are an order of magnitude worse by most first-hand accounts, but it's just a continuation of a very long trend.

"Internet is just LLM crawlers hungry for content now?"

its been that way for a few years, real users using mobile app and access social media now

the percentage internet user who "surfing" on the web is dwindling and more likely diminish in near future

I see this too on my CF Pages-hosted blog.

Analytics only work if the agent runs JS. CF on the other hand counts file fetches, which can't be circumvented.

There's always a baseline of bot traffic.

ah, that explains it, I think. I expected them to sessionize the file transfers under one unique somehow still, even without JS.
