Semi related rant about owntracks:
I hate that everything has to be a server now hosted somewhere. Nothing is offline-first.
Why can’t my phone just record my location into daily/hourly .gpx file which get synchronized whatever way I want (dropbox/syncthing/rsync/OneDrive) and then when I open the frontend app it would just parse the files and show them on the map?
