I stopped using analytics on all of my projects for a while now. I've got blogs and actual saas (non-commercial) out there. And to this day I dont know if zero people or more are actually using it.
The reason is: a) I do these things first and foremost for myself and I share them because maybe they are useful for other people (but I dont mind if they are not). And b) I always intend to publish my "products" without needing a cookie banner.
And it also gives me a lot of peace of mind.
- stevage 1y agoI tend to be the same, or I roll my own very basic analytics - essentially a hit counter. It's nice to know whether people use your stuff or not. Particularly so you don't turn off something that actually do care about.
- turnsout 1y agoI'm in the same boat. I look at graphs of traffic generated by my server logs just to get a general sense, but analytics and user-level data? Honestly 99.99% of blogs don't even generate a sufficient volume of traffic to analyze. I just don't see the utility. Put another way, how would my behavior change in response to analytics data? It wouldn't. It certainly shouldn't.
