Dang, what do HN's traffic numbers look like today?

he said about 1-2 years ago that avg daily traffic was about 6m/day.

factoring in growth, my guess is about 7-8m average.

i'm extremely skeptical that the reddit blackout caused any spike in HN. they're quite different audiences. if i'm going to /r/animecatgirls i'm not coming to HN. if i'm going to /r/MachineLearning i don't get nearly the same thing.

most people would be going to discord/lemmy.

also it seems to be recovered after earlier slowness, what was the fix (if any)? more instances?

This mildly feels like asking chatgpt about chatgpt

I'm going to make a bold prediction, it's over 9,000!
