I really like the simplicity of the ui. I’m curious what makes it immature vs mature in your opinion?

There are options missing from the admin panel or the dashboards that intuitively seem basic. Some examples: - excluding certain data from your report (such as localhost visits) - setting a default time range - on the 'overview' of all your domains, setting a time range that applies to all and not just one domain individually (this particularly felt really counterintuitive)

There is more I'd come up with if I actually pulled it up, but the overall throughline is that it just feels 'too basic' at this moment. Especially for something that goes beyond tracking visits on your personal blog and/or hobby website.

Thank you excluding localhost is a feature I didn’t know I needed till your comment. Makes total sense.

You can exclude your own visits (like localhost visits) by manually setting a localStorage entry on the browser you don't want to report statistics.

>This setting applies per website, so you will need to do this for each website you want to be excluded from.

Would it not be better to just have a blacklist it could ignore localhost and whatnot?
