had a dream that it was 180 degrees F in El Paso but when I tried to google if people were okay my phone kept redirecting to the weather app

I think I’m going to trial @plausible on the work site (a UK university). Anyone have experience of using it in a medium-sized business? We’ll run concurrently with GA for a while and then see how (ahem) plausible migrating our analytics is.

I asked a question about analytics' commitments and the tumbleweed is rolling on by. I really really hope my fears are misplaced.

Thinking I might have made bad decision choosing analytics.

There's no way to get your data out of their paid saas product, so you're completely locked in. You don't own your data. And new features now come with premiums. And as long term stats are valuable, that's a perfect recipe for future price hikes with no choice but to pay up.

Self hosted works nicely but it now sounds like it will always lack features.

Maybe time to take another look at

Fingers crossed it won't be toooo long before they land in a self hosted release.

Anyone know on (the excellent) @plausible how to remove a user account on the self hosted version?

I can remove users from domains, but I can tell the users still exist somewhere. Is this just a case of rolling up your sleeves and connecting to the postgres db to delete the user there?

@artfulrobot I'm not sure exactly how has this setup. But if you can access your tables in ClickHouse, you could export your ClickHouse data to a file like described here:

clickhouse.com/docs/knowledgeb

There are many other similar methods in for writing out to a file locally or in S3

How do people their self-hosted (in Docker) databases? Seems there's 2: the users etc. and the (which is completely new to me). All the data is in Docker volumes.

@ploum Would be even nicer if everyone wasn't going to Matomo when there is more privacy-focused analytics out there too like but it is better than GA of course.

Ah, so only records utm params for the request that initiates a session; subsequent ones are ignored. This is interesting: how does it identify a session? e.g. open two private browsing tabs and it considers them the same session. I guess it goes on useragent + IP maybe?

I think I've read that sessions last 30 mins.

So far, despite harder docker set up, I'd say Plausible is beating because it can filter on utm params. But apparently this is coming soon to .

OK, got them both up and running now.

Don't know what the problem with was but grateful to someone on github for support.

Both looking good. shows less info on the graph ( shows visitors and views at once), but seems to offer more ways to segment - utm_ parameters are apparently supported, though not actually working for me.

Trying out self hosted and alternatives.

So far Plausible (which I have used as a paid service and like) won't start up, but got set up with Umami very quickly and it's working on three sites!

I like the idea of privacy-friendly non-cookie driven, reliable stats with a simple interface; both projects offer this.

My clients all use GA but very few understand it/use it fully, and with the sunset of UA and the horridness of GA4...

did some optimizations to the peertube media caching and moved it to the remote storagedrive again to have more space... i hope the changes will finally do the trick in (more) cutting down the costs caused by the migration to remote storage (b2)... if so, i might open registrations again soon™️ ... watching the thing closely, even added anonymous analytics ^^

if the video isn't cachet yet, you might experience one or two delays in the beginning of the video – couldn't change this yet
