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.

Something that might be helpful in posts like this: Please tell us what this app does! Why would I want it? Instead we get a list of things that changed in an app that I'm not familiar with.

Could anyone explain how this works? Where do I get location data from? iPhone?

[–] danielgraf@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Reitti displays data coming either from an import. You could upload GPX, GeoJson files or export the data from google maps and import that. If you want more up to date data, you could install an app on your phone which pushes your latest locations into Reitti. GPSLogger or Owntracks are at the moment supported for that

Thanks 😊

I just spun an instance up using the docker compose file. I did disable the exposed ports for all the services except reitti itself. Is there a specific reason you keep them exposed?

[–] danielgraf@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 day ago

You are right, I missed that they are still open for the other services. I have mine running behind traeffik and did removed all port definitions.

I will change the compose file to only expose Reitti.

Thanks for the feedback🙏

No, not really. It just makes it easier to spin up all the needed services and it is at the moment the "documented" way.

On the release there is also jar of Reitti.

If you need any help in starting that, let me know.

Anyone with experience, how does this compare to Dawarich?

Basically what he wrote https://lemmy.zip/comment/20166393 reitti focuses on the significant locations where you have been and dawarich on all places/ a heatmap which includes routes, i.e. running around a lake can be important which isn't for reiti

They sorta look like they have the exact same focus
