The timing to build a Nostr powered alternative for Strava AND Komoot is almost getting perfect after the news is out that Komoot is acquired by a Bended Spoons. In '23 and '24 they also have acquired Evernote WeTransfer MeetUP etc for example and we all know what will happen next now with Komoot #enshittification.

Strava has entered a new phase of enshittification. A platform I’m using since 2015 as a cyclist and I was paying for a membership too.
Building a proof-of-concept #Nostrides (web)app is one of my current goals for 2025. As an alternative for Strava. They are itching me too much.
