Not the author, but last year I wrote about my experience being on #1 on HN [0]. I created a visualization of the requests hitting my server.

Very cool post! I enjoyed it a lot! Do you have any more backend insights like this on your blog? I'd happily read those.

Btw. was the writing assisted by AI or is it all you?

In Brave browser on Android device, the visualisation media(?) is blacked out. just wanted to give you a heads up.

Thanks for letting me know. It seems like when Brave is set to aggressively block tracking, it also blocks the canvas since it could be used for fingerprinting a device.

I'll see if an avg version is viable in the future.
