Yep, and the Wordpress /wp-admin login attempts, even if you don't even run Wordpress. You'll see these attempts in less than an hour when launching a new web server so definitely is automated.
You're of course right about bad actors not representing "the world", but when 99% of interactions is hostile, one's perception of reality changes.
I feel you. I have a server exposed to the internet, and pretty much the only thing in my access log is PHP/cPanel/MySQL exploit attempts. My guess is that you just port scan the entire internet and go fishing.
Not that this is much consolation, but keep in mind that it's not the world that aims to destroy your small genuine thing, but instead a tiny army of unscrupulous jerks.
