Usage Statistics

Sends a small anonymous report once a day so the Termix developers can see how many instances run and which features get used.

What is sent

Always, while it is on:

A random instance ID, the Termix version, and how many users and hosts exist.

Each of these has its own switch in Admin Settings > Usage Statistics:

Platform info: operating system, CPU architecture, Node.js version, database type, and whether Termix runs in Docker, the desktop app or as a plain server.
Feature usage: how many times each kind of tab was opened, plus SSH logins and host connections, since the last report.
Installed features: the ids of the running built-in features.

It never sends usernames, hostnames, IP addresses, credentials or anything else that identifies you or your servers. Admins can preview the exact report before it is sent.

Turning it off

Admin Settings > Usage Statistics > Share anonymous usage statistics.
Each user can leave their own feature usage out in User Profile > Usage Statistics.
ENABLE_TELEMETRY=false turns it off and locks the switch. ENABLE_TELEMETRY=true locks it on.

Environment

ENABLE_TELEMETRY: true or false overrides the admin switch.
POSTHOG_API_KEY: the PostHog project key. Defaults to the Termix project.
POSTHOG_HOST: the PostHog host. Defaults to https://us.i.posthog.com.
