There are many good, lightweight, and open-source alternatives to Google Analytics, such as Plausible, Matomo, Fathom, Simple Analytics, and so on. Many of these options are open-source, and can be self-hosted.
-
Mobile apps illegally share your personal data
You can for example use analytics that aren't spyware, and hence don't even have to try to trick users giving "consent" to things they don't really want.
Seriously: what share of people actually want their behavior to be tracked for ad companies to make more money?

Companies must stop using Google Analytics
I tried the self-hosted version of Matomo [1][2] a few years back but I remember it was a bit underwhelming for the effort required to set it up.

Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (January 2024)
Location: Ireland (Galway)
Remote: yes
Willing to relocate: yes
Technologies: Go ("Golang"), Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Linux, Unix, PostgreSQL
Résumé/CV: https://www.arp242.net/cv/cv-martintournoij
Email: [email protected]
I've been using Go as my primary language for the last seven years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.
In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.
I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242/

Using Analytics on My Website
I suggest using analytics that you can self-host, like https://www.goatcounter.com/ and renting a cheap vm to run it on along with your blog. It is way better, you have more control and you can be sure that javascript tracking is working for 100% of people using the site since you have full control over it not getting blocked by adblockers.
-
Ask HN: Is Google Analytics that useful?
I'm self-hosting GoatCounter and using it across all my websites.
Apart from controlling my data, I also have more accurate visitor statistics, as it doesn't get picked up by script blockers, unlike GA.

What has your personal website/blog done for you?
I first used basic google analytics but found it too invasive/heavy so I switched over to https://www.goatcounter.com/.
For comments, most solutions were also too heavy, paid or had ads, but I finally found https://giscus.app/.
So while I did add these 2 features, I'm happy with those variants that I managed to find.
