What happened in May this year?

The download graph for my ramsey/uuid library for #PHP went full hockey-stick this year, starting in May. It jumped from about 450k downloads per day to 1.2 million per day so far in November.

A screenshot of the chart on the page linked to in the text of the post. It’s a gradual slope from ~150 downloads per day in April 2015 to ~250,000 downloads per day in April 2026. Then, from May to November 2026, it shoots up to 2.1 million downloads per day.

This wasn’t supposed to be a low-key flex, but I’ll claim it now. Totally flexing! 💪
