Show HN: I'm building a Strava alternative without all the social media crap I'm working on https://cubetrek.com , a web app to manage, visualize and compare your running, hiking, mountainbiking, skiing... activities. Some features include: a github-style calendar heatmap, 3D visualization of tracks (especially useful for hill climbs and mountaineous terrain in general), a world map displaying all your activities at once.

Any feedback is appreciated, let me know what you think, what to improve! https://cubetrek.com April 23, 2023 at 03:53AM
