Is it just me?
It shows 0 traffic, 100% down, at the same time it shows me 152 people realtime on the site.
The same thing happened yesterday and the day before, only updating the total count after 2 PM (EST).

Like what the hell?

P.S.

What are the decent alternatives to GA?

Even I am finding it difficult to get used to GA4. It shows delayed metrics as you are saying. I am sure many people are facing this same issue. I wish the old analytics should have stayed, it was way better!

This new GA4 shit is so bad, metrics update so slowly, and its so complicated, I miss the old analytics dashboard, clean and simple, why these big companies always find a way to fuck up their products? smh

GA4 is delayed by design. I'm trying Metrica as an alternative, but I'm having a hard time getting into it.

I have had it installed for years, mostly for session replay and heatmaps, but looking into it now as a proper alternative.
It still shows 0 on my end for the whole day today, while it keeps showing visitors in real time.
