Thanks for sharing! I was planning to move away from GA and didn't know about umami.
The heroku free option for Postgres looks like it's limited to 10K rows. I didn't spot anything on the umami docs about how they log analytics. Any ideas on how much usage it can log before it runs out of space?

I don't expect it has built-in "overwrtite" functionality so one would have to go in and clear old records perhaps? Wondering how long you've been running it for and whether you've run into any such problems.

Hey Dewang, I recently started using Umami and So Far My experience is good.
Umami does provide reset option for clearing out the old data.
Umami has FAQ section and community support umami.is/docs/faq.

Thanks. Yeah had a look and will probably use umami but with a separate DB hosted with another provider. 10K records (max with Heroku's free option) is basically 10K hits to your site.
