How would this compare to something like PostHog?
Posthog makes it almost impossible to actually self-host since they try to push you onto the cloud as much as possible. They say that the self-hosted version only works well up until 100k events ... which is insane since their cloud free tier is 1 million events. It's actually the reason why I built Rybbit. I tried to self-host posthog on my server but it ran it up to 100% CPU on 8 cores and didn't even work.
Ok posthog rant done.
The other main difference is that Posthog has like 10+ different products all in one. Their web analytics is good, but it's just kind of bland (imo) because it's not their main focus.
