hey #cycling fedi, is there a free software / less likely to be enshittified alternative to Komoot now it's subscription based for route planning & exporting those routes as GPX that can be used on Wahoo/Garmin devices?

I have a few friends use it because I've mentioned that it plays nicely in the #openstreetmap universe and now that there's a subscription, I'd like to be able to recommend something a little more free software friendly!

(subscription news is at road.cc/content/news/subscript )

road.cc · New Komoot users now must buy £4.99 monthly subscription to send routes to cycling computersUsers who have already purchased or unlocked specific Komoot map products, such as single regions or region bundles, will still be able to plot routes and sync them to devices as before — new users now needing to subscribe for the functionality
Hi, @MapComplete !

I'm checking the Restaurants and fast food in my area and noted that it's very outdated vs #OpenStreetMap data.

https://mapcomplete.org/food.html?z=17.9&lat=40.74402099234737&lon=-3.5998745018598584

https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/40.744017/-3.599715

There shows two restaurants that I removed some months ago and lacks another added about one month ago.

Could be something at my side or map items are updated from time to time?

Meine #MTB Fahrten tracke ich mit einer Smartwatch über GPS. Die gpx Datei exportiere ich von #Gadgetbridge zu #Opentracks.
Durch das #OSMDashboard für open tracks kann ich eine offline Karte anzeigen lassen.Es fehlen leider Höhendaten und Steigungen in der vorhandenen Karte. Vermutlich gibt es Karten des Schwarzwaldes (insbesondere Region Freiburg), die solche Daten dabei haben? #openstreetmap ? Wo finde ich die? Hat mir da vlt jemand eine Quelle? Oder Idee?

As you might know, the area of #BahiaBlanca, #Argentina has suffered dramatic flooding in the past few days, receiving the equivalent of its annual rainfall in just a few hours.

We have started mapping the most critical areas, and we are now publishing projects in #HOT's Tasking Manager, 2025 Argentina Floods campaign, where projects will be posted as needed.

We invite you to participate, it is an intermediate mapping of sometimes dense areas. bit.ly/ARGFloods

Do you know of the @umap project? It helps users create their own custom maps, and makes it easy to query data from OSM, or add your own.

They recently changed how users can authenticate with the service. 😸

The authentication option now show logos of Github, Bitbucket, an "obsolete" stamp over the old logo of twitter, and, of course, #OpenStreetMap.

Hi y'all, this has become a bit more important now. I learned this week that my current contract will not be renewed for funding reasons. Please see the quoted post for more info! ​:boost:
