It's an incredibly bare-bones analytics tracker, but it's free and cloud-hosted which were the two things I was most looking for in an alternative to GA.
I run a website that gets about ~300k pageviews/month. Vercel was eating my wallet alive with their analytics offering. All I wanted with my tracker was to feel motivated by knowing that traffic was going up and to the right. I didn't want to pay hundreds a month for that and I didn't want to manage my own server just to have analytics. Goatcounter addressed my needs well!
I just stood up a new toy project (excepted traffic is next to nothing but I still want to be able to tell) and was just thinking I needed something like this. Thanks!
