If you have the know-how and time/resources to maintain a self-hosted deployment, and care for security and privacy requests, that sounds like a sound plan. PostHog/Matomo are good choice.

If you want it done for you, then:

Matomo Cloud

Piwik Pro

Wide Angle Analytics

...

plenty of choices

The reason why I am still working on uxwizz.com and maintaining the current pricing model (source-available, paid license, yearly updates), is that it allows me to focus on making self-hosting as easy as possible and work on creating tools to reduce the time it takes to set up and maintain the platform. Most other tools, which provide a cloud offering, have no incentive in making self-hosting easier, as that would lead to their business/cloud offering losing money.
Of all the things that I have, time and resources surely are scarce. Thanks for taking the time to read, cheers.
