Looks interesting, but for hobby websites with low traffic the pricing is slightly steep at $14/month - I pay $5/month for the hosting (:

Any alternatives?

Why bother with analytics for a hobby website?
This is the correct answer. There's precily nothing to gain from looking at the data from a small website.
analytics is important to grow an audience. A big website doesn't need to care about SEO or analytics or anything really. Metcalfe's law
You can still self-host a FOSS law compliant analytics suite. It will suffice for small websites.
If you don't want to pay it, then you probably don't need it.

I don't have experience with alternatives though - they just don't do as good of a job as Fathom does.
