// EDITOR'S TAKE
Plausible Analytics matches the one-page, cookie-free philosophy most closely and is mature enough to run unattended; Umami is the lighter self-host if you want to keep the bill near zero. Rybbit and Betterlytics add funnels and session replay, which is more machinery than most people choosing Simple Analytics actually want.
