Matomo

Matomo (formally Piwik). You'll have to self-host this one, but the level of data you get from it is probably going to be the most detailed in comparison to Google Analytics and other alternatives.

66Analytics

Last year I stumbled upon https://66analytics.com/ and liked it quite a lot. It is very light but covers quite a lot of stuff that I wanted to have. It’s a one time payment but only around $60 I think and does not have any limitations after that. I liked the one time payment idea and that I could just run it on a shared Hoster that I had already around.

Minimal Google Analytics Snippet

Why not use Minimal Google Analytics which is only 1.5KB in size but it doesn't support full-blown GA or use Analytics JS which is 17KB which support everything except Autotrack (my knowledge) but is prone to Bots.
