Hello there, what are your preferred libraries/saas for analytics in jvm desktop? Seeing that Firebase/Google Analytics is out of the picture not sure how can I track the user events and analyse them later.

[Arjan van Wieringen]

You mean telemetry? OpenTelemetry for instance.

[sergio artalejo]

No, I mean something like Firebase and Google Analytics for user event tracking.

[Arjan van Wieringen]

Why are Firebase or Analytics out of the question?

[sergio artalejo]

Honestly I could not find a way of tracking events in the jvm project. For Android and iOS is done but could not figure out a way of tracking for jvm desktop.

i use https://simpleanalytics.com

@Arjan van Wieringen is it possible then to use firebase/Analytics somehow?

[sergio artalejo]

Thanks @Alex Styl. Will have a look but I would love to have all the events in the same platform if possible.

[Alex Styl]

@sergio artalejo not sure what you mean. i just use SA to track events and see what's up with my app

[sergio artalejo]

What I mean is that I have already and Android and iOS app reporting to Firebase/Google Analytics and would be nice to have them all reporting to the same platform so that i can build charts and comparisons easily.

Sentry (or GlitchTip with Sentry SDK) ?

[sergio artalejo]

Not really, I am using Sentry as a crash/bugs tool but not user events, analytics like Google Analytics/Firebase.

[sergio artalejo]

I am trying to send events to Google Analytics through the API but that does not work either.
