       Did several hundred people add my blog to their RSS reader at once, or is this someone's idea of a DDOS?

       @soatok my guess is AI scraper.  That's the same time of day they hit sites that I work on.  I suspect but cant confirm they specifically choose hours where there's less site traffic and things are less likely to totally crash and also when people on the west coast are working at the AI companies.  Im in the Pacific time zone for anyone who wants to compare notes.  For anyone reading this, feel free to let where/when you are and what your experience is like.
