  I also dropped strava a while ago. For me it was because they updated their privacy policy to blanket allow ai training with your data to both strava and any partners. They claimed it was only for XYZ but the privacy policy allowed it for any use which i consider dangerous for health and geospatial related data without specific, informed consent.

  But for alternatives, when i was into cycling/triathlons i used golden cheetah extensively. It’s UI takes some getting used but ime it was more powerful than anything else once you got used to it. I used it as a strava premium/trainingpeaks premium alternative and had multiple athletes (me+coaching) in there.

    Sweet, thank for the recommendation. I will check that out when I get a chance. I think I dropped Strava before you as I don’t remember that, I was just pissed off with the constant erosion of key features put behind paywalls since I had been using them since 2010 or something like that so it just became too much that things I had used for years were now gone!

  robably miss some of the more granular comparis

  Thanks for your honest feedback! If I were ever to change the data-source, I would rely on users uploading TCX files. But for now only Strava is supported, hence the name ;).

  I feel like the existing self-hosted alternatives to Strava are really mature already. So I’m not sure if adding another one would be smart? Might be wrong though

    I’ll be honest I haven’t looked super into alternatives as of yet as I have only recently got around to dropping Garmin which was fine for me for a long time so maybe there is something out there already that fits my needs anyway :)

  What do you feel they have been enshittifying?

  • theskyisfalling@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Who, Garmin? The fact that they added a paid subscription model “Garmin Connect +” for “premium features” that is the first step in the enshittification play book and how Strava started before they slowly erodes features away and put them behind a pay wall of a “subscription service”. I spent a lot of money on watches over my 15 plus years of using Garmin products and do not appreciate them adding paid subscription bullshit.

    Add on to that the fact they are an American company with no offline options I’d rather not be sending a lot of sensitive health and location settings to American servers constantly every single day. So those two factors should be reason enough for everyone to start rejecting them IMO.

      I meant Strava, I don’t have a Garmin. I use Strava (I pay for premium) and I like it and they keep adding features (I mostly ignore their AI)

      After 3 free apps that I used to track my runs went under or really enshittified I decided it was worth it to pay for something I liked

        I don’t know how long you have used Strava for but for how long I used it a lot of those features you now pay for used to be standard features that came with the app. You didn’t need to pay to get access to all those things and when you have been using features for literally a decade and then suddenly they are held to ransom it kind of pisses you off and makes you not want to use that shit any longer.
