npub19lt4284mghqxekzm6n5njxurnxrxhqhrva2leusdsuu5ja5jeycq66qfjk (npub19lt…qfjk) I will definitely give this a try, and probably also contribute to it.
For context, I’ve reduced the usage but I’ve basically never stopped using Foursquare (just in the form of Swarm app now), especially when travelling. You still get a lot of valuable tips in the app after checking into a new restaurant or hotel!
I have replaced it in the meantime with a Tasker script that reads my GPS location every 10 minutes, forwards it to my MQTT broker, and then all of my Platypush automation magic happens to store it on the db together with an estimate of the address and nearest POIs. It leverages the Google Maps APIs for now, but migrating to OSM is something that has been on my backlog for a while.
It works great, and I can even run aggregate queries on the db like “show me the countries where I’ve spent most of my time in the past 3 years”. But it lacks the “social” part of it (location sharing with my circle if I want to), and this project definitely seems to fill the gap.
