And while we're on #Wordpress, anyone experienced an issue updating Jetpack today? It won't update. It also appears to be a beta version.
Since we're on the topic of blogs (see my previous reply), has anyone noticed a significant increase in traffic over the last month? I suspect it's AI scraping, but my traffic has increased about 500-1000% since December. Instead of one hit per day I now get 5-10.

Blocking Empty UA Outside of Feed Requests
I wanted to add an htaccess rule to NLJ blocking requests from empty user agents (and "-" user agengs). I looked into the best way to do it and found a 2017 answer on Stack Overflow. This solution is interesting because it explicitly allows requests to the site's feed. While I have not noticed empty user agent requests for our feeds, there are many niche feed readers out there, so I went with a modified version of this snippet to be on the safe side.https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/blocking-empty-ua-outside-feed-02-04-26/

That's a yuck-a-doodle from me. Added my comment on the Make #WordPress post, though I realize it won't have any effect.
- Don't add dependencies to core for things most people don't want.
- I don't trust it to be secure.
- It can be done with a plugin and should be.
- Still waiting for core multilingual, why are we adding the kitchen sink when the basics are a decade late?
