#13I wish Github were more permissive with traffic-related data to your Github pages. I'm not expecting GA tags, but being able to see > 14 days of page view history would be a good start. Anyone know of any other solutions around this sort of thing?
Yeah, I don't want to include trackers because of privacy. But it would be nice to see which pages are accessed, and from where the visitors are coming. I don't need more than that, and that can be gathered from the access logs.
I use a self-hosted Plausible analytics server to implement this[0] across all my websites, so it's all public and you get to see exactly what I see[1][2].

#17It was on the HN homepage for about 5 hours yesterday, never higher than about 25. The initial jump on the 25th was some attention on Twitter. Also the HN link was to the website, not the GitHub. I imagine if it had been a link to the repository the stars would be higher.
