I miss this vibe (Posthog appreciation post)

I might be late to the party, but I just started using PostHog on a frontend application and, man... it feels like when you buy a new phone and get to peel the plastic off that brand-new screen.

You know what a phone does, but somehow, having that new thing still gets you excited.

That's exactly how I feel here. I've already used Hotjar, Datadog, and Sentry, but damn... PostHog feels like it's on another level. From their homepage design to the developer experience, installation wizard, documentation, and all the features... I'll be migrating some professional and personal projects over there soon.

I was using Hotjar for heatmaps and session recordings, but I often ran into premium feature restrictions. And after its full integration into Contentsquare, I really didn't like the direction the interface took.

Then comes PostHog, with pretty much everything I wanted and far fewer limitations. The smart dashboards it set up through the onboarding wizard were great.

The feeling I get is that they built the whole thing with developers in mind.

Also, I absolutely loved their copywriting, stuff like: "LOVE HEDGEHOGS. HATE WEBINARS."

Well done, guys. Well done.

I miss this kind of vibe on the internet.
