Use Simple Analytics in place of GA

[Astrodevil]

Google Analytics collects a lot of unnecessary data that are not required for small projects. Instead, try using a simpler analytics tool like Umami. It also has a public page feature, allowing you to easily share analytics with others.

Simple for you, good for site visiters.

I never used this. I am open to discussions, but at least we have something working for now.

Umami is a simple one-liner in your head and most importantly:

I'm not sure Google abide by the same rules?

good points @dansholds . I am not familiar with it. How long would it take to set it up and what's needed on my end?

You can add it here, in place of the Google implementation -

rustcrab/src/app/layout.tsx

Line 20 in b924957

Just log in to https://umami.is , Click "add website" grab the code, and add it to the head.

The site mentioned installation but that's not required 🤙

(I would submit a PR but it needs you to grab the umami code)

I would say, less than 5 minutes.

I was genuinely surprised how fast I had a accurate analytics dashboard up and running!

I was using GA before but when I found out umami is great and has a feature similar to plausible public page. I signed up

@FrancescoXX , I am using Umami in my recent freelance project. It's very easy, fast, and cheap, and you can create custom reports as well. You should try it once.
