  • Any alternatives to Life360/FindMy?
    The only private alternatives are going to be self hosted and will require some technical skill. See owntracks for details. Source: 12 months ago
  • Trying to make a pair of compasses that always point to each other
    On your side, you need some way to be tracked. Easy solution is an app on your phone, I like OwnTracks as a privacy-respecting option. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Privacy-focused Vehicle Tracking Tool?
    Sounds like owntracks with a android headunit https://owntracks.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Updating location on Google maps
    OwnTracks is app people can install on their phones that you can setup to send live gps coordinates back to your web server. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Best solution for remotely hosting public-facing low-traffic services?
    One container where this would have been an issue for me is OwnTracks recorder. Probably could have got it working on ARM if I wanted to compile the program then create a container around it, but didn't want to spend the time and instead just used the free tier x86_64 VM.
