    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.
