I can't download it: https://github.com/ananas-analytics/ananas-desktop , I get a Github server error. Is it just me? Edit: not just me, Github issues.

Looks like GitHub is experiencing errors, just had the same problem with an unrelated repo.

My unprofessional professional opinion. The product looks great, but the name has to go. I can't imagine pronouncing that, let alone communicating it over a phone. Any simple word before analytics would be better. Edit: pineapplytics is the obvious cute and available one, however may still be difficult to communicate.

People have same opinion about Azure. Microsoft didn't change it. Ananas is still not that bad.

Can we hook this to an api GET request ? I guess i could API -> download JSON -> Ananas, but you know..:)

The API data source is a great idea! You can create a feature request on our github. (Otherwise we will create it ) We will try to put that into following releases.

I was thinking the same thing, for like IoT monitoring sensors, etc - but it is open source; grab it (once GH is back online), add the new "source", and issue a PR - that'd be the way to do it I think...

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Fun fact: Only the English language calls the fruit "pineapple", almost every other language calls it "ananas" or similar.

I looked it up, I get it, but this post and the site, are targeting English speaking.

Now I really want the author to rename it pineapple in the English localization, and leave it Ananas every where else...
