Bending Spoons are a scourge on humanity. Right cnuts. They just bought Vimeo and promptly sacked everybody.

I agree with you. I also feel sorry for the staff who were fired when the takeover took place. My ethics are such that I can not support such a business model. Each to their own, of course.

As a fan of maps in general, very happy with the map layers I get with RideWithGPS Premium. Being heavily into the geology and pre-development physical geography of the places I ride, favorites include the satellite, USGS topo, and offroad layers.

The USGS topo layer is great for old place names (like Evans Point or Saddleback Ridge or Cottonwood Creek) that you never see on newer maps.

I'm not a fan of maps spelled backwards...

Andrew, I'd like to clarify some matters.

• For me, it doesn't matter what route planner app a person chooses. All major sports trackers work equally well with Wahoo.
• I plan my routes in Komoot but save my ride recordings to Strava (only that service matters to me) and to RWGPS as well to Komoot. Of these services, only Strava presents the full information including the activity name given in Wahoo app
• I actively used RWGPS during my early gravel cycling days. I had to heavily modify the routes provided by ride organisers to make my own. RWGPS was very good in that role.
• However, I realised you could only select paved/unpaved in RWGPS and changing the map didn't modify the route according to the sport. Komoot makes a big difference between General Cycling, Road, Gravel, and MTB. I'm surprised how safe routes Komoot offers while RWGPS can easily get you somewhere you are not able to continue your ride.
• RWGPS has no idea you are riding an e-bike. Komoot and Strava are e-bike aware.

I could have more comments for the comparison between the apps but it is rather pointless. As I said: 'All major sports trackers work equally well with Wahoo'.
