My experience is that out of my other logs/metrics (cloudflare & server logs) Umami was the only one that didn't overinflate by counting bots and crawlers.

I know the true state of my site visitors: the vast majority of legit visitor traffic is from my own home IP, and my own mobile IP. Umami was the only one to show that.
