Re: Textpattern Marketshare
@singaz. I see that all the time in my daily logs, too. Script kiddies gonna hack low hanging fruit, regardless of whether you advertise what system you’re running or not.
Virtually nobody tests what you’re running first to target exploits. It wastes processor cycles. Fire and forget is the name of the game. I estimate 70% of the exploits people try against my site start with /admin (WordPress) or are attempts to fashion DB queries that target Magento loopholes. I’ve never run either on my systems, ever.
If I added generator="WordPress" or generator="Galactic Badger" to all my Txp sites, I’d get the same bad traffic hackers.

Colak, … that is some huge htaccess file you are running there.
Our site was relentlessly attacked. Two times using DDoS. I am also I am trying to redirect old versions and urls, of the site in order to reduce the 404s.

I’ve been doing this for years. Since the TXD times at least. Never had a complain:)
