I'm working on an open-core product [0] right now, and an aspect I find missing in the article is that you can generate trust by showing how the internals work. This is especially beneficial if you work in an area like us. Of course, you need to make sure your license is set right and you need to think about where new features go, but it's a valid use-case.

- tommoor 6y agoLovely landing page – there seems to be a sudden abundance of google analytics alternatives by small teams and indie hackers in the last year, any insight into why that is?
- marvinblum 6y agoHmm due to the cookie banners probably. I've started this as a side project for my personal website, without looking for existing solutions :D The landing page is... meh, a placeholder more or less right now.
- tommoor 6y agoThat kind of makes sense, the cookie banners have been around quite a while now though.
- dschramm 6y agoThey did get more annoying lately though. Nowadays you have to wrestle through a horrible click game of dark patterns to not accidentally accept anything. Things like putting a small "Accept all" in the top right corner where you expect a close button or hiding the settings with at 12px in light grey.
