We're evaluating @plausible for collecting basic visitor statistics about our blog and homepage.
Google Analytics and similar competitors require us to review our privacy policy and take other actions to comply with the GDPR.
Self-hosted Matomo is great, but way too powerful. We just need basic statistics (how many visitors per day / which pages are frequently accessed?).
Plausible Analytics seems to be perfect for the job, because
* it provides exactly the metrics we want
* it's easy to set up
* no worrying about the GDPR
* it's open source software
* it can be self-hosted or booked as a service (https://plausible.io)
Well done, @markosaric ! 👏
