Might as well share it now: I built an ActivityPub integrated social network for athletes. Some people might claim it was influenced by Strava.

Please look at the terms and conditions. This is a personal project, I built something I wanted, so there are no guarantees, use at your own risk.

You can follow my FitPub user at @javahippie@feditrack.javahippie.net and will get Notifications about my workouts in your Fediverse timeline. You can comment in the fediverse on such activities, and the comments will appear on FitPub. You can like these posts and the likes will appear on FitPub.

@javahippie 💪 Count me in.

@javahippie@feditrack.javahippie.net Routes are rendered on OpenStreetMap, Weather Data is fetched from OpenWeatherMap. It can read Fitfiles and GPX files (currently), you can import activities in batch. I imported all my 850 old Strava activities at once. You can see a heatmap, and basic statistics and milestones.

@javahippie You have to sign in to read the term & conditions? 🧐

There was some discussion about an app like this for the fediverse’s runners last weekend, so very timely!

[javahippie@mainz.social]

@javahippie@feditrack.javahippie.net There are no prebuilt Docker Containers, Binaries or documentation on how to set this up. You can find the GitHub Repo linked in the Footer. I will not accept hundreds of users into the instance, but if you are interested in hosting this, I will help you build from source and run it.

This is on purpose. I don't plan to invest half of my time to maintain this, and making it easily accessible for others would send the wrong message

@WTL Oh, that shoudln't be. Thanks for the hint, I thought I fixed that

[wtl@mastodon.social]

@javahippie All part of the service! 🤣

[javahippie@mainz.social]

@WTL Should be working now (hopefully without refreshing the cache)

@javahippie Interesting – I’d like to give it a try.

@javahippie@mainz.social @javahippie@feditrack.javahippie.net oh wow, this is pretty amazing. I was discussing something like this with @marcphilipp a while ago. I'll definitely check it out!

[wtl@mastodon.social]

@javahippie Will check it out!

[ildave@mastodon.uno]
