OpenTracks VS openhab-distro

OSM Dashboard for OpenTracks (version 2.19.0): OpenStreetMap dashboard for OpenTracks

OpenTracks (version v4.3.0): A sport tracker buddy that respects your privacy.

OpenTracks!

I like OpenTracks https://github.com/OpenTracksApp/OpenTracks

I think OpenTracks does everything you want. It's a very nice app, and while they don't charge if you find it useful I'd encourage donating.

Google had an app called MyTracks[1] a while ago which was a very nice and simple way to have an offline google map and record your tracks. They deprecated and open-sourced it. Apparently, it's living on as OpenTracks[2].

Hi, I'm currently looking for a running app that can keep track of my run and my statistics without using them or selling them to a third-party company. I've already done some research and found OpenTracks but I want to know if there's any alternative to it that could be better (even if OpenTracks isn't bad honestly).

The GitHub update, including changes, here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/4.1.0.M1

I understand the feeling :) I’ve tried home assistant multiple times, and I always come back to openHAB. Maybe it’s me getting old, don’t know. But like you, I dislike updating my server and having broken dependencies. That happens quite frequently with HA, where every once in a while we get people over on openHAB community forum asking for advice ( e.g. https://community.openhab.org/t/migration-from-home-assistant-to-openhab-and-installation-type/140110 ) because they too just want a stable service that they can rely on. I won’t say that there’s never been broken dependencies - not at all, in a previous update they changed the way the API works and the node red node broke - but here the difference is that you can go to their GitHub and review the changes (https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/3.4.0.M3) and they are impeccable in documentation. Check out the google integration documentation to understand what I mean:

OpenHab : https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/pull/1343

openHAB Beta 2.18.2-beta: Vendor and technology agnostic open source home automation

Look into OpenHab.

OpenHAB would work well as well. Definitely agree on zwave or maybe zigbee devices for low power usage.

I use this https://www.home-assistant.io/ or another https://www.openhab.org/ and a cheap raspberry pi zero. It can run 24/7. And maybe some "hacking" on your devices if not supported aka listed.
