I see a lot of bots as well. They mostly look like deep crawlers, looking to cache data. Possibly for additional AI training (?) since I have a niche topic site, also with information progressing back about 25 years. About 25% of my crawler/bot activity lately has been just from Facebook's "Meta Web Crawler." The rest with similar IP addresses, i assume are also either content bots or users on VPNs, which are attempting to pre-fetch data by downloading everything attached to the page they are visiting.
