Does anyone work in a place where y’all are actually happy with your website and esp. tracking capabilities for clicks, views, journeys across pages?

I keep hearing every company I ever work with even tangentially complain that their site and analytics are bad and that they need to improve, but I’ve never actually seen anyone get to the state of it not being supposedly bad?

Does that even exist or is everyone just lying to themselves?

The Linux kernel community has quietly drafted a continuity plan for a post‑Torvalds era. 🐧
