See issues: WordPress Version
5.3.6
Version does not appear to be latest

 User Enumeration
The first two user ID's were tested to determine if user enumeration is possible.

Username   Name
ID: 1   nightmare   nightmare
ID: 2   not found   
It is recommended to rename the admin user account to reduce the chance of brute force attacks occurring. As this will reduce the chance of automated password attackers gaining access. Take note that if the author archives are enabled it is usually possible to enumerate all users within a WordPress installation.

After 25 years website owners now retiring - sad sign of the times, sad for Austin, Texas. :(

Seems both front end and back end discontinued, only still as google-user-content.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
