A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I figure that once you pick a mapping application, you'll pretty much stick with it. So I've been looking into both Dawarich and Reitti and tbh, am having trouble figuring out whiat differentiates these two applications. Can anybody comment on these applications and if they use one or the other and how they like it?

That is a nice question. I will not participate in the comparison but am here if anybody has some questions about Reitti.

One tip I can give, which makes switching apps easier, is: try to keep either the raw GPS files or make sure that your chosen solution allows you to export them. That way, you could import them later into another one.

I used dawarich but switched to geopulse because dawarich broke too often on updates. I only rarely use it but it works well enough.

So now you have three options that you can compare, good luck?
