      An alternativeto Matomo and Google Analytics

      PostHog is open source product analytics, built for developers. Automate the collection of every event on your website or app, with no need to send data to 3rd parties. It's a 1 click to deploy on your own infrastructure, with full API/SQL access to the underlying data.

        @girish @nebulon Perhaps useful for Analytics on Cloudron's actual usage?

          I recall that this requires clickhouse. Looking into this again, it seems clickhouse it's quite easy to deploy.

            @girish Yes please. It really is web analytics at a different level than most other systems.

                Wow, this looks and sounds quite much as a winner to me.

                  I've been playing around with their hosted version and it's awesome! Would be a great addition to cloudron!

                      Do people really get much use out of sophisticated web-analytics?

                        @LoudLemur I see this as more of a speed-optimisation and user experience analysis tool to use on developing webapps and more interactive websites, like ecommerce.

                          @LoudLemur it can be useful if you develop an app on mobile phones, and you want to know which features are used or not.

                          Lot of work goes into developing an app.
                          No point in having a feature if no-one uses it, alternatively it can point to need to evangelise that feature or improve its functionality or sign-posting in the app.

                          I am interested in adding this kind of monitoring (w/o privacy intrusion). "Metrics" have a bad name if abused (as BigTech usually does) but limited light usage monitoring does aid the development process.

                          That said, I haven't yet added usage reporting to my app yet. It's on the TODO list.

                          EDIT : PostHog seems like a "non-trivial" packaging for Cloudron, unless someone can say otherwise.
                          Currently I'm looking at a simple event log in a back-end DB (but not FireBase). Nowhere near the functionality of PostHog, but I don't need their full functionality.
