Hey HN, I made Femtostats because none of the other web analytics providers did what I needed. I needed a self-hostable, single-container, privacy-focused web analytics and statistics service for various personal sites that I maintain. Plausible and Fathom/Fathom Lite came close, but I was looking for a completely free self-hostable option.

If you think it's useful, let me know.

Is self-hosted Plausible not completely free? I use it for a few small static sites and I'm quite satisified.
It's free, but it requires also running Postgres and Clickhouse servers instead. I'm short on RAM so I wanted something lightweight even if the disk storage wasn't as efficient as a dedicated timeseries/event DB.
OK, thanks. Got it. So the main benefit of femtostats is the single container and the small memory footprint.
