#Alltrails

1 post1 participant1 post today
We got out on this trail pretty early to beat the crowds but @troutprospector had us beat. He was kind enough to let me take his portrait amongst the scenery during our trip to Denver, CO. Next time I'm up in that country I'm bringing my fly rod. I hope those cutthroats weren't too shy Shawn!

To my fellow #privacy focused individuals. I’ve been using a #Fitbit for some time, and as you are aware, #Google purchased the brand a while ago now, and I have been #De-Googling my life.

What solutions have you found for #fitnesstracking? I’d be interested to know about any #OpenSource tracking options that work well with GPS and hiking apps such as #Alltrails, or other alternatives.

I’m new to this area of privacy! Beyond just taking the tracker off completely and going without.

@roguelazer Ryan Jones (on Twitter) also mentioned #AllTrails (replaced with Apple Maps outdoor navigation feature), Bitmoji, and Grammarly. I don’t really agree with AllTrails and Grammarly being replaced, though – They have a few more features than Apple’s tools, as far as I know. 🤷 (Although Grammarly is really boasting with AI nowadays …)

Do you use AllTrails, GAIA GPS or onXmaps?
Surprise! Bet you did not know you are *indemnifying* those companies.

Worst case translation: The company is sued and you must reimburse the company for the attorney fees they spend defending themselves. That is my understanding of the gist of “indemnification”.
