Any komoot/outdooractive alternatives? (feddit.org)

I am annoyed by komoot. Is there any suitable alternative for sharing hiking or biking trips online. Something like OSM but for tours. Ideally federated, but I would be happy with anything.

Edit:

The main feature I am looking for is finding a tour. I want to enter a location and an activity and find nice tours with gps tracks, pictures and a description.

Komoot and Outdooractive can be used as navigation and map viewing apps aswell, but I think there are enough posts about alternatives to those like Mapy.cz, Organic Maps or OSMand.

For just the "finding GPS tracks for biking trips" part, https://cycle.travel/ is pretty neat.

A really cool app is wanderer https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer

It's not directly what you asked but it is cool

To me, it's cooler than komoot and outdooractive but it's not social consumer ready

A public instance with a community would be what I would be looking for. Thank you!

I'm not familiar with Komoot, can you share what features you're looking for?

If it's similar to what I'm thinking of, these two might be relevant on the selfhosted side

The second one might be getting social features?

For apps, I think this is what people recommended for hikes/trails

Sorry for being unprecise, I added some more context to the actual post.
