I notice that the "first seen" info on my obfs4 bridge status page on tor atlas / metrics all of a sudden is incorrect, by years. Not sure if it's something that introduced itself with latest update or what. The various graphs on traffic and users are still correct through. A tor op

Shouldn't matter. You can change the IP / location / name etc. of a bridge as long as you keep and transfer the keys. I have been doing this recently as I sadly needed to part ways with a provider: eno1  /  daily   day    rx  | tx  |    total    |   avg. rate -
