Good morning Fedi friends!
I'm currently in the east of France visiting extended family.
We're snowed in, everyone in the house is still asleep and I'm in the kitchen, near the fire, sipping coffee and setting up a new self-hosted app: #Umami (a privacy-respecting website analytics app).
How long did it take me to connect my 3 websites? 5 minutes.
Thank you #YunoHost for making all this possible!

@elena Umami is great! I use Umami purely to monitor how bad the bot situation is, I love visitors who request 80 pages in 10 seconds and come back repeatedly to get one page every few hours. /rant
I use umami via a caddy plugin so it doesn't need to do the whole javascript tracking since ad-blockers (and bots) will block it. The default javascript method is a lot simpler but if you have access to setting your own environment variables, it would be worth changing collect_api_endpoint and tracker_script_name so Umami will work better.

@shom thank you shom! A little too complicated for this newbie but I will look into it 😅

@shom P.S. I did tests to see if the setup worked using Vivaldi (I have ads and trackers turned off by default) and yet it registered the test visits 🤷🏻♀️

@elena ah thanks for bringing that up
I once was searching for an GoogleAnalytics replacement but gave up at some point - removed GoogleAnalytics and just used one for Wordpress.

@hikingdude I used Plausible for a year and loved it but it’s a bit pricey… considering I can self-host a FOSS tool for a fraction of the price… there’s also Matomo but I eventually went with Umami because I heard it’s very easy to set up and use
