You can still self-host your web analytics and they won't be blocked, plus it's 100x better than using a "free" service that centralizes data.

I am not deep into analytics space, but I know from experience that the most popular ad blocker (ublock origin) will block the most popular self hosted analytics package (matomo).

  • The thing about blocking self-hosted analytics is that it's very easy to avoid being blocked if you want. You can just change the included tracker name, or request parameter names.
