My inspiration is obviously Netlify's analytics (limited to 30 days) https://docs.netlify.com/monitor-sites/site-analytics/
Some data I'm thinking would be nice to have:

Pageviews
Unique visitors
Top pages
Top resources not found
Bandwidth used

Maximilien mentioned https://quickwit.io as a stats solution to look at

It needs some clearing about what excatly would be good to have, but I was thinking that some server-side basics analytics for websites visits would be something nice to get some metrics without having to install some external and more complex statistics solutions.

Quickwit is a log storage and query backend, so it can be abused (with tricot HTTP logs) to get statistics on website request from a backend PoV, but it's definitely not in itself a tracking tool in the spirit of google analytics and plausible. For example I'm not sure we could get "unique visitors" that way.
