We apologize for the instability of composr.app and appreciate your patience. We are working on the statistics addon and trying to find an optimal way to store and render data. Unfortunately, we have yet to find a solution that can handle the traffic (and therefore, tens of millions of statistical records) of composr.app. We're working hard on one.
Google Maps:
Provide OSM alternative and possibly Bing Maps alternative, sharing code where possible
If we rename main_google_map to main_map_users we'll need to update our "post your location" topic here to reference the new block name.
Google Translate:
Support multiple translation systems via hooks
Implement at least one other service
EDIT: Since done
Google Analytics:
Implement Piwik
Google Site Search:
Provide Bing Custom Search alternative
I'm happy with this for now. We've scaled Google's influence back a fair bit, only preferencing where Google's products are radically better, or where Google is restricted to non-bundled-addons.
Google have now responded very positively to the concerns from Amp, partly due to pressure from me, but also many others.
Note Piwik is now called "Matomo Analytics". I tried it recently, it's a very nice product.
During using this I found (and checked) Google Analytics is currently considered illegal in Germany unless IP anonymisation is enabled (because of full IPs being exported to the USA) . This is based on their version of the GDPR legislation, so may also be found true in other European countries. EU users are therefore very likely to want to use a self-hosted version of Piwik as an alternative.
