  I’m sure Strava would throw a fit if Garmin did the same.

  Most of my data on Strava comes from Garmin

    I left Strava when they adjusted their ‘freemium’ model and hid a number of things behind a paywall. Now I just use Garmin Connect, for tracking my stuff and an ‘athletic’ social circle of friends via connections/news feed.

      All of that makes me nauseous.

      You’re free to use what you want to use, but the layers of dependency on vulnerable product lines is exactly the problem

    Yep, was thinking the same. And all the other brands of fitness devices…

  Fuck Strava. After not using it for a bit it’s now pestering me to start the app again. The begging starts to get a bit creepy to be honest.

  I guess I’m not using Strava anymore.

  Does this effect showing derived data to other people?

  Something like wandrer.earth isn’t really competing, I hope that’s allowed (and doesn’t block any plans they have)

    It probably affects wanderer.earth.
