More WHYS.video drama: Part 6

More WHYS.video/Language.foundation/Askabout.video changes happened over the weeks, and here are some of them.

1. The Ipxo hits on my analytics

When I was checking my analytics service, I noticed hits keep coming from an ISP named “Ipxo” and from both Chrome and Firefox on a Linux desktop; it is probably another vibe-coded script checking my website for new updates.

I blocked the Ipxo ASNs on my firewall, so it can no longer scrape my website.

I noticed something similar a few months back, when a bot named “LohiSoftBot” started hitting my website. LohiSoft is a software company, and their Bot started hitting my website many times from Hungary. LohiSoftBot is a bot meant for feeding a search index, and LohiSoft is not a search engine, so it is probably monitoring this website for new blog posts.

I added it to my robots.txt and later my firewall.

2. The language.foundation vibe coded update

They had updated Language Foundation again, this time with a digital term search. What’s funny if I try to search “hallucination”, “slop”, “vibe coding,” or “content farm” it comes up with no results, despite claiming to describe digital terms.

An archived version is avaliable just in case it changes again: https://web.archive.org/web/20261020020437/https://language.foundation/

3. Tranco & Top 1 Million

WHYS.video suddenly appeared on the “Tranco List“, which is basically a text file with the top one million websites on the planet.

Here in the Tranco List, it says the following:

644153,whys.video

It is among the top 600,000 websites now on that text file, which is crazy.
