Is it possible to self-host Clarity? (lemmy.ml)

I found out about Clarity, it's a Microsoft free product. It seems to be source available on Github

Does anyone know a way to self-host it without making requests to Microsoft? Or maybe an alternative with heatmaps without counting on matomo?

You are right, I'll see if it works

Is this yet another MS product like VSCode that is free forever but has a license that only allows to official builds to be used and/or running on their servers or...?

Since your post is in the privacy community, I have to say that I would never ever use any softwares from Microsoft for my own projects, not even open sourced and self-hosted ones. Everyone knows that Microsoft love to collect data and so do Google too, and Clarity uses Google Analytics.

Google Analytics is banned in some countries here in EU only because of the violation of ones privacy.
