Handling IP addresses
Analytics services can also be self-hosted. While this is a more expensive solution from a management perspective, it is the solution that affords the greatest flexibility for implementing and enforcing privacy protections. There are many offerings in this space, including established projects like Matomo (formerly Piwik) and Open Web Analytics.

Quick Question: Backend engineering intern
It depends on what metrics exactly the analytics want to aim. Maybe it's indeed better to dev something just for this use case. But as he said, “track it ourselves” I'll avoid Google solution and use something like Open Web Analytics (In general case, I don't use Google Analytics any more).

Umami: Best free Go-To Google Analytics Alternative
Are you tired of relying solely on Google Analytics to track your website's performance? Look no further! Introducing Umami , a powerful and privacy-focused alternative that puts you in control of your analytics data. Umami was founded by three brothers, Mike, Brian and Francis Cao as they were frustarted with using Google Analytics, which dominated and still does the industry of analytics despite of privacy concerns. As it is open-source, Umami quickly started being popular open-source project while still respecting privacy of users. My personal opinion, is that Umami is really easy to setup and use, for smaller projects as my personal website it is of great use. It does not many tracking as GA but it really does its job.

One Worker to Track Them All: Injecting Analytics Scripts into Multiple Websites with Cloudflare Workers
For a while now, I've been creating mini web tools to test out ideas or as tiny helpers for myself. I usually publish them on individual subdomains, which might not be the best idea, but I like the concept of a short, easy-to-remember URL. Recently, I discovered that some of these tools actually have a few users, which made me consider adding analytics to them. After a bit of research, I settled on umami. It's a great little privacy-conscious tool with exactly what I need and nothing more.

Using Analytics on My Website
If you already use Posthog, Web Analytics has been in Public Beta for quite some time.[1]
If I remember correctly, CloudFlare Analytics does not need you to register your domain with them. I personally feel keeping domain registration coupled with your DNS provider is not a good idea.
Plausible[2] has an Open Source self-hostable version but is not so updated in sync with their SaaS version.
Umami[3] is another simple, clean one. And, of course, as many have suggested, Matomo is the other well-established one. If you want to avoid maintaining a hosting routine, a lot do the hosting out of the box these days. PikaPods[4] was good when I tried and played around for a while.

Building a privacy-friendly, self-hosted application architecture with SvelteKit
Analytics is something that can easily become a privacy headache. To get around the issues as much as possible, the strategy I've implemented is to self-host the analytics tool Umami (again, via the One click app functionality in CapRover!).
