Short PostHog session; fixed identification, started user tracking.

Starting late today, haven't had much time. It's going to be a short session. Most of the sessions this week are going to be short as I'm returning to work tomorrow, and I expect there to be a lot of catch up.

I'll start with PostHog again. About 20 new sessions, 2 new users, none started a tutorial.

The stats on PostHog are a mess now. I don't understand the default funnels and there is no identification, so I can't really track the trend or if what I'm doing is helping. I should take some time to understand these, set up a funnel that makes sense for me, and set up identification so I can see what the few users I get are actually struggling with and contact them directly to ask for feedback.

Let's start with identification.

While debugging identification, I noticed a bunch of errors in the console due to logo hydration errors. I refactored the mess and removed getting the theme altogether. Turns out, I just needed a bit of css:

<Image src="/logo-dark.svg" className="... hidden dark:inline" />
<Image src="/logo-light.svg" className="... inline dark:hidden" />

I fixed a bunch of things and got the identification to work. I can now create user profiles for users who sign in, look at their sessions and follow up with questions.

I created a Cohort and added myself in it. Now I can exclude myself from all future analytics, which should help me when analyzing actual user behavior.

I still haven't figured out the weekly and daily summaries for x and linkedin. I'll try and do that tomorrow.
