So me and my team planning to run our lemmy instance, but i was thinking what cam make lemmy complete at the same time respects the privacy of the users.
I need to know the below: 1- Best alternative to Cloudflare. 2- Best alternative to Google analytics. 3- “Recommend use to support lemmy to work properly”
I hear a lot about cloudflare on lemmy, users sounds unhappy with it for many reasons, so its very important to me to how we can replace cloudflare when we launch our instance.
I don’t self host but this is what I have seen people using.
Bunny CDN instead of cloudflare
Plausible Analytics - Google Analytics
Lemmy and pict-rs support optionally exporting opentelemetry spans, and setting up Jaeger to capture those is a nice way to manage traces without shipping data to third parties
What do you need cloudflare for?
Here’s some analytics alternatives: https://alternativeto.net/software/google-analytics/
We need cloudflare for DDoS protection and DNS management.
Also, any ideas how the back-ups work in lemmy? hope this is not out of the context of the post.
