Ask HN: What do you use for analytics for a statically generated website? (ycombinator.com)
I recently deployed a Hugo blog that I'm locally hosting. I would like to know roughly how much traffic it's getting (almost nothing except friends right now, but I still would like some data).<p>Obviously I could use Google Analytics or something, but I would rather not introduce any kind of Google tracking to my site. Honestly I think I'd be happy enough with one of those "counter" things from the 90's.<p>Does anyone here have anything?

If you regularly check your website’s analytics, you may have noticed something weird in the past year or two. None of your visitors use Windows 11, and nobody upgraded their computer past macOS 10.15 Catalina. That can’t be right. So what is going on?

Despite the tremendous investment in database infrastructure in the last decades, data alone doesn’t drive value — applications, analytics, and machine learning models do. Extracting raw data from databases and leveraging it elsewhere transforms it into business value, actionable insights, and, thus, competitive advantage.
