I've been a fan of https://httpstat.us/ for a while now. Pretty much the same thing only you can also ask for a specific response time, which can be useful for testing timeouts.
If you want to leave Google, but are not opposed to proprietary infrastructure, you could use something else with event tracking, like HEAP (https://heapanalytics.com/), which is very good. Or if you prefer open source, Matomo seems like a good alternative, with both hosted and self-hosted options (open source, https://matomo.org).
I wouldn't call "not using Google" radical. We have grown used to hearing that independence on GAFAs means being "radical", even though it should probably be the norm.
Somewhat similar is FlexiSpot [0] desks. Have you tried those ? if so, I'd love to hear how they compare to Uplift.
Myself, I have a FlexiSpot height adjustable desk and it's great. The price was 430€ (frame only) new (and I've seen it cheaper during events like Black Friday).
From my experience with Deliveroo, you can pretty much order at any address, wait for the delivery person at the doorstep and retrieve your order without actually living there.
The part "by editorial board views closest to yours" says it all. All newspapers have views. They choose what is "good" or "bad" based on their views. That's why cross-checking is essential.
That's the case with any newspaper though, isn't it? We should always cross-check and verify, listen to multiple opinions and look at a variety of sources if possible.
Going vegan is essentially "Stop buying stuff" where "stuff" is meat. You should stop buying anything that pollutes a lot and/or has low value compared to alternatives: diesel cars, disposable plastic items, useless gadgets, etc.
Then again, different platforms have different sets of hardware features, so sharing 100% of the code is usually not possible or desirable if you want to make the most of each platform.
You might want to look at remote work, if that's something you're comfortable with. You can get paid well (think "Paris-salary") and live in more economical areas. Happy to talk more if you're interested.
Then you lose some security though, because I think Heroku uses large IPs ranges [1]. There seems to be no way to allow database access from a private IP address, other than using expensive proxying addons. That means you probably have to open up your database to 0.0.0.0/0, which is not good at all.
