Self hostinged analytics

aphexaphex Member

Whats the usual suspect these days?

I know of Plausible (FOSS version missing many things like APIs meant for 'premium user'?), matomo (very harsh resource consumption).

    How about goatcounter?

  • aphexaphex Member

    Thanks, some more to add in list, I will take a look. I don't have much cares of wanting "user tracking" past counting views and looking in referrer domains.

    • goatcounter
    • umami
    • openwebanalytics (not really developed ?)

    Unfortunately not in a good place to have access to log & would be running something to add with script src/img src outside of my application

    Ah, sounds like something that a good chunk of people, browsers and add-ons would likely block by default then. Good luck.

    I just use GoAccess for some visualized nginx log file viewing from time to time. For my limited use case it works fine and without bloat or being invasive to end-users.

  • +1 Rybbit is awesome. I love the globe feature.

  • I am soon going with Umami at PikaPods.
    "rybbit" is a new kid on the block. Check them too.

    Heard good stuff about GoAccess, Umami is also awesome, gdpr+ compliant and self-hostable with easy. Not blocked by firefox/ublock origin so far.

  • Check rybbit as mentioned by @radex and @sanchogodinho https://github.com/rybbit-io/rybbit also you can look at swetrix https://github.com/Swetrix/swetrix

    Yeah I do not mind this and just want to know what referrers are linking in and which pages are most popular.

    If they send DNT or GPC header I omit it from loading completely; just no real access.log type of access on cf pages static, vercel, railway type deployments (contrast in apache/nginx type deployment)

    Umami is your best bet, really like it

    Just a heads up, @sanchogodinho @Jord @Netralex @3K33 someone on LET is petty enough to get yall listed:

  • tentortentor Member, Host Rep

    Doesn't Umami honor DNT?

    https://docs.umami.is/docs/tracker-configuration#data-do-not-track Only if you enable it. Trackers suck but self-hosting your analytics with umami, plausible or any other privacy respecting analytics tool I can understand, just don't use the big facebook pixels or google analytics and its already 100 times better.

    Yeah, umami, rybbit, plausible are all privacy gdpr friendly analytics tools, especially self-hosted. But powerjannies will think this is saving the Internet.

    If they block all kinds of analytics, what's the point I'm even using a privacy friendly analytics tool? Why don't I use the one which will harvest maximum data from the user if it's gonna get blocked anyways?

    Sometimes it's best to leave it as is, sometimes you can't get through or change people's minds. Even if you do things right, people will still not agree with it.

    To be honest, I think it's not a big issue for me cause look, as a social media platform, this was bound to happen someday. But I feel bad for others which use these kinds of privacy respecting analytics scripts thinking they won't get blocked.

  • Guys, having stuff like this in a self-hosted tool is definitely cool, but is there anything less functional and more resource-friendly?

    System requirements for any of the scripts above say "At least 2 GB RAM".

    The website I'd like to try this with uses 10-20 times less.

    This is cool, but I don't think it's lightweight.

    I'm using a self-hosted Matomo long time ago. I can confirm, it has relative big resources requirement - if it handle lot visitors, data - but it know everything what's I/we need. :)

    Depend's of the usage type, goals, but if You need wide-range options, reports I'm not sure there is really better option.
