Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/1705

Hello,

One of the dependencies in server/package.json is posthog-node. The npm docs are scant. Followed the links to the product docs.

Questions:

  1. Which product does Anything LLM use?
  2. Does posthog power the anonymous telemetry in Anything LLM or does it power user analytics that are surfaced in the admin panel?

Thank you

This is outlined in our README.
https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm?tab=readme-ov-file#telemetry--privacy

You can disable it from the UI under the "Privacy and Data Handling" setting in sidebar. These metrics are not used for any admin panel that is used in the application and is purely for the core team and no instance specifics or IP addresses are collected.

Thank you @timothycarambat. Will Anything LLM install and run if posthog is removed from server/package.json?

yes, but you need to also remove all Telemetry calls
