Allow cookie banner on docs #73

We're collecting some analytics to see how things are going with traffic on the docs site. As far as I can tell, it's the best indicator of increased/decreased adoption or source of info about whether some promotional article/video was posted.

We likely need to add a banner about cookies usage. Is the information enough (eg. by using this site you agree), or do we need to come up with some cookie control? Is there some service we could use?

I would really like it to be non-invasive if possible. Those banners are everywhere. 😓

I usually am a strong advocate for no tracking at all. Still, a few of my clients are public services that

  1. need tracking information to be able to document usage of their services
  2. need to strictly conform with GDPR/DSGVO rules

Since I also hate cookie banners, I usually opt for a cookie-less self-hosted Matomo install. More about this on the official Matomo docs

That way, we would get the best of both worlds – tracking without banner ...and best of all, there already is a matomo plugin for swup! 🎉

Opinions on completely removing tracking from the site? ±1 😁

Suggestion: I can set up a self-hosted Plausible instance on a VPS I use for internal tooling. We can then import the GA data and switch to Plausible which doesn't require cookies or banners.

I'd very much like that!
