TLDR; I switched to Fathom. You can find a comparison table at the bottom.
As many of you may have read, Google Analytics is illegal in some count...
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
Remind me to show you one of my side projects next week, analytics, heat maps, scroll and page behaviour and core web vitals monitoring in about 3kb! Got a long way to go on the backend but I think you will like it!
Nice, keen to see that!
It's too bad that Plausible Analytics are building their entire marketing strategy on "Google Analytics is evil and illegal in Europe".
Some of their marketing messages contain misinformation and false facts.
Also, I'm always confused when a tool is open-source, but there's a pricing.
Like, make up your mind, if you really want to build a tool for the community, just make it open source and free.
So useful info! Thank you.
By the way I found this counter.dev and I'm thinking of trying it.
It says it's simple, free, open source and privacy friendly, but we'll see how great it is.
Oh nice, looks great as well
Wow, you really took some time to dive into the whole topic. That's one great overview. Also, about the legal part: even if you are not located in a certain country and don't have users in that country yet, you may be liable if your page is reachable from that country, so better make sure not to put yourself in a hot spot.
I'd rather play safe indeed, you never know who might visit.
And it's just general good to be on the safe side when it comes to anything legal.
Nice work! Will use this for future reference!
Glad you liked it.
You forgot to mention Weblister.co My own creation.
Wonder why Open Web Analytics is overlooked in such a list.

Also it is Umami not Unami.
That aside, a top list, a top matrix and great work. Top article.
Never seen this pop up to be honest,
I'll check it out Bernd
Hi ! Matomo can support custom domain because is also Open Source !
Nice! Matomo is a great tool
What a great information, thanks! Good to know that there are alternatives as good as Plausible.
A lot of great tools on the market these days 🙌
It can yes, basically any external load will, but some are super focussed on being as small as possible.
