Friend in question was mining bitcoin out of his NYC co-op apartment on a master electricity meter.

A crypto enthusiast friend once made that argument to me and it was so baffling.
By this logic, we should all leave our lights and air conditioners on while we're at work or on vacation because it will increase demand and hasten the transition to renewables.

I’m a little confused by the reasoning here.
You state that peak (commute) traffic is recovering but off-peak is still low, due to WFH?
Wouldn’t WFH be impacting peak hours, with off-peak at all-time-low due to other things like leisure travel?

I'm experiencing this right now with my site https://www.dropspotter.com
I've done everything right according to Google, set up the search console, uploaded a site map, addressed all mobile usability issues. And yet only a tiny fraction of my content is being indexed.
I'm a bit at the end of my rope here as I've poured a year into this project and getting a historically normal amount of search traffic may be the difference between this project being viable or not. The most frustrating part here is having zero visibility into what's going on.

Glad I’m not alone in this. It’s rare that an interface makes me feel as dumb and frustrated as GA4
One of the more baffling choices they made was to have “today” and “yesterday” as options on the user reporting tab, even though it can take up to 48 hours to process the data and my dashboard always shows zero users for “today”. Took a while to figure out what was going on there…
Meanwhile the real-time reporting works reasonably well but is limited to a 30 minute window. Some real head-scratching choices were made here.
