@JonathanReez I see. I thought it was due to the pandemic.

considering the drop started just as the pandemic did

@gerrit I think that's right looking at the metrics on the other sites I moderate. I'm not seeing a change in referrals from google specifically, just overall sudden drop for most of them. Outdoors and Security are different, for fairly obvious reasons.

@gerrit the drop off started in 2019, prior to the pandemic. We've never recovered to the traffic levels of summer 2018
