It’s just not a useful point of comparison anymore for the purposes it used to be. Does cloudflare track how many million hits I’m getting a day? Yes, but it’s next to useless as a measure for popularity or anything of the sort. You can’t differentiate human and bot traffic with any real degree of reliability, nor is there much meaningful reason to do so anymore with agents acting on behalf of real users. A year ago? Sure, I’d listen to an argument, but now users are bots too. Seeing “bot traffic” or web traffic move is meaningless now. A website with 1000 hits a day could be far more popular than a website with millions a day
Is this the year 2000, we still measuring website traffic?
What do you even mean?
We’re also still measuring rainfall. Data doesn’t become less valuable as technology progresses…
Visits to a cyber security firm’s website couldn’t be less useful as a metric here
Damn, you’re dumb as hell lol
Hmm, every company monitors their web traffic. That’s standard operating procedure.

It’s my job to do so
What a silly, silly comment
