🖙(Trying) to add stat tracking
I like stats, so i thought i'd try to add stat tracking to alys.plus.
I often use Goat Counter because it's self-hosted and preserves privacy.
From the docs, this is what it collects:
The following information can be stored:
- URL of the visited page.
- Referer header.
- Browser and system information (derived from User-Agent header or HTTP client hints; the original headers are not stored).
- Screen size.
- Country and region name derived from the IP address.
- The browser language derived from the Accept-Language header.
There is a setting to disable collecting any of this data and the collected data may differ per hosted site, but the default is to collect all of the above except the language.
No personal information (such as IP address) is collected; a hash of the IP address, User-Agent, and a random number (“salt”) is kept in the process memory for 8 hours to identify a browsing session, and is never stored to disk.
There is no information stored in the browser with cookies, localStorage, or other methods.
The requests are definitely going to the server, but they're not being registered. I'm not sure if there's some sort of delay?
