Traffic report

Now for something completely different

This traffic report is adapted from the Top 25 Report, prepared with commentary by Igordebraga (June 21 to July 25), Rebestalic (June 21 to July 4), Thatoneweirdwikier (June 28 to July 4) and Kingsif (July 5 to July 25).


We're halfway through this year that seems to be lasting a decade ever since COVID-19 went global in March. This Report opens and ends with particularly slow weeks (the last one in particular has the first #1 with lower than a million views since 2018), and features many celebrity deaths and a solution to being trapped at home during the pandemic: streaming content, especially the filmed version of a Broadway hit.
