hey there, can you share with the entire list you're thinking of? we've switched from google analytics to self hosted matomo last week, and planning to switch again to fathom for example. thanks!
- quickben 7y agoHey, what other self hosted analytics made your shortlist? I am looking for a self hosted solution for my sites and wondering what to pick.
- kn8 7y agoFathom - very simple, very pretty, great all in all Countly - a little richer, e.g. geo view Matomo - the most feature rich, closest to GA (haven't used)
- neilv 7y agoLooking right now: api.producthunt.com, cdn.iubenda.com, analytics.mostash.com, instant.page (I'm blocking all of those, but requesting them could lead to additional requests.) (I don't block the third-party for Cloudfront, where you seem to host Wordpress.) (The third-party request purporting to be for privacy is arguably counterproductive.) (I thought I saw a Google/Doubleclick one earlier this morning, but don't see it right now, and I could've be mistaken.) Towards your goals of ethical, it might make sense to strip out all your third-parties (except Cloudfront, for now), and if you really have to add anything else, self-host it. Otherwise, you're leaking cross-site tracking&profiling information about your users, generally without their awareness, which I'm sure is not what you intend. Good luck with your effort.
