No, the AI megacorps only steal and then make you pay to use their illegal and unethical services. How naive is this?
jlow (he / him)@discuss.tchncs.deto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Google killed Maps Timeline, so I self-hosted a better one [OwnTracks]English2·2 months agoWhat problems did you encounter? I dimly not using the official docker-compose file but one from else (because I wanted to use Http?) but personally I didn’t find it as complicated as setting up Immich or Invoice Ninja or other services that have multiple containers that need to talk to each other.
jlow (he / him)@discuss.tchncs.deto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Google killed Maps Timeline, so I self-hosted a better one [OwnTracks]English2·2 months agoMmmh, I don’t think the app ever got disabled by Android during my days of testing (I actually reinstalled yesterday and having a look again, battery drain seems a bit better now so far … ). But obviously a system service is always gonna be prioritised higher than a user app. But as I said I didn’t have this problem with this app (actually the only one I can think of is Syncthing and with that I’m not sure if it’s not the app going to a sleep mode or something by itself).
jlow (he / him)@discuss.tchncs.deto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Google killed Maps Timeline, so I self-hosted a better one [OwnTracks]English4·2 months agoWhat does device-only mean in this context? That it’s only stored on your phone?
jlow (he / him)@discuss.tchncs.deto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Google killed Maps Timeline, so I self-hosted a better one [OwnTracks]English13·2 months agoIt (theoretically) works without PlayServices. I’m on CalyxOS with MicroG enabled and while I was testing OwnTracks I think MicroG was using the Gplay Location services or something? I’ve since turned something off in MicroG location settings that was phoning home to Google and GPS is pretty bad now, not sure if OwnTracks would still be usable.
I think the official app tries to not be killed by Android woth the usual tricks (permanent notification, disabling battery optimisation):

You can (theoretically) control how often locations are tracked and sent but for me was using the location service constantly and draining battery quite a bit.

But I could never get it to ingest any data from the recc Android apps (this is probably a me problem, though, Linux Unplugged crew are using it).
