Analytics for exceptions and page views #44

Open daniel-lerch opened 2 years ago

daniel-lerch commented 2 years ago

Vocup currently only tracks a few events using Matomo. Sadly, Matomo does not seem to be the best choice looking forward as its libraries are not maintained anymore, documentation often missing and tracking applications other than websites poorly supported.

Alternatives to Matomo to consider:

Plausible
Countly
PostHog

Matomo outperforms Plausible and Countly in terms of analytics features. Tracking page views has been introduced with 1.9.0 for some dialog windows. However, tracking exceptions with stack trace will be difficult because full texts will easily reach 2000 chars whereas Matomo only allows 255 chars for custom dimensions.
