It's compliant if you show a cookie banner on your website. It not really privacy-friendly as you are still setting cookies on your users devices.

There is one point from the Google announcement that I fully agree with and that is that the future of analytics is cookieless by design (only google won't be a part of this)

Is this [1] relevant here?

Edit: I am asking because I know that there are better alternatives than matomo. But there still needs to be some alternative for 'oldschool' hostings with LAMP stack.
