You mean like the Google Analytics you have running on your website?

  Yes that is something I plan to address by switching to another blogging platform. If you look at the GA ID you'll notice it's not mine and it belongs to my blogging platform (which apparently enables GA with their own ID even if you don't provide a custom one instead of just disabling the feature). Edit: I have now deleted the DNS records so the website will be down until I have time to fix this properly.

    Do you have another platform (ideally self-hosted) in mind? I used to run a WordPress instance for my personal site but took it down after it got annoying to stay on top of the frequent updates and security fixes.

      I have the same problems regarding Wordpress so it definitely won’t be that. I’d look into static site generators but the problems with them is that I will always be tempted to tinker with it which is why I went with a hosted solution. I will look into Substack as I’ve seen it used quite a bit around here recently. If not, I’ll see what Squarespace has to offer. I actually tried emailing the owner of Svbtle (the platform I used) about removing GA but haven’t had a reply.
