We've been using Hetzner for years for Pirsch [0] now, and so far we had a great experience. I migrated all of our data from AWS S3 to their new object storage without issues. We only use it for user pictures and small files (white-lab

We back up simple dumps to a Hetzner storage box (5€/month for 1 TB), which is fine for the moment. I download and restore the dumps locally regularly. In the future, we will need a more robust and scalable solution of course.

I've been running Pirsch [0] on Hetzner Cloud for 3 1/2 years now on a self-hosted HashiCorp Nomad cluster. It has been super stable and very cost-effective. The Hetzner VMs are really cheap and a lot more capable at the same time

In our case, it's a SaaS (pirsch.io) and browser first. But people and I like having an icon on our phones that we can click to open a dashboard quickly. Of course, this could just be a regular link, but it saves resources because PWAs

I'm on Fedora. Of course, there has to be a native UI, but I'm running a two-person company for example. How on earth are we supposed to manage three or more platforms (browser, Android, iOS)? We're not lazy but limited by ou

I was also looking for server-side analytics, created my own, and now it's a product! The idea is that tracking can be done from both, a JS snippet (for easy integration) and an API. Both rely on fingerprinting and almost provide the s

This reminds me of Twix, which every few years or so brings out a "special" Raiders edition to defend the old brand. Perhaps Musk will do something similar. He's definitely not going to give up Twitter, and even if he does, h
