>1. I am looking into them but my current metrics are self made and cost little. It's this cookie consent bullshit that is causing trouble, I want users to have to accept all my cookies (no 3rd party trackers though) when they sign up. The answer is simple. Don't allow access to anyone unless they provide you with the tracking info you want. Personally, I refuse to access sites which require me to provide them with information I don't wish to provide. Please do post your site name, so I (even though I'm not in the EU) can make sure never to go there. Good luck!
