No prior measurement history is available.
Launch context is observational and does not establish causation. It records product-level context beside the readership windows; it does not show that a launch caused a change in readership.
Counting methodology
- Reader identity
- unique client IP across the measurement window.
- Real-IP cutover
- Real client IP logging began at . Earlier requests are excluded.
Exclusions
- requests from self-identifying bots, crawlers, scanners, headless clients, and known command-line or monitoring user agents
- requests for JavaScript, CSS, images, fonts, audio, text, XML, and JSON assets
- WordPress, environment-file, Git, vendor, phpMyAdmin, and XML-RPC probe paths
- all requests before real client IP logging began at 2026-07-26T22:00:00Z
- every IP that requests 15 or more distinct page paths in the retained measurement window
Comparability across windows
Windows are comparable only while this reader identity and every exclusion stay unchanged. If the counting contract changes, the affected window is marked not comparable with a reason; counts on opposite sides of that change must not be read as growth or decline.
