We don’t need any of the advanced features Google Analytics offers. But when I look at the replacements, they also lack basic ones.<p>A simple one would be showing me the visitors to /blog/ and its subdirectories. And from there allow drilling down to them.<p>And from a UX perspective, none of them seem to support searching for a specific page to display the stats for. Yes, you can edit the URL, but that’s a horrible way to do it.<p>edit: To add, they are also very expensive. Above 1 million views/month (which I would say is still a pretty small commercial site) goatcounter already is in "ask us" territory and plausible wants $69/month. As the value add seems very small, we rather use our own homegrown, bare-bones analytics system for anyone who doesn’t consent to analytics.
