…as I say I like strava and might subscribe. But, for many of us it is the segments that make strava, this is what other platforms don’t have, and it’s the users over the years who made the segments with their funny names/contested names and, frankly, wrong names (that’s not what it’s called!), leaderboard battles, memories of when the TdF rolled through and swept koms away etc.
I mean I could over do this, but this is user created content in a similar way to a climbing guidebook, with all the iconic route names and history. The users created it on the strava platform and strava are now monetising this content.
I’d probably do similar and with an attempt at a straight face say I was doing it for the wonderful community of athletes (yeah right), but wouldn’t expect people to be pleased if I was taking something they’d made away from them.
