I built a nostr bridge for strava.

I thought it’d be cool to have my workouts crosspost to nostr. a core feature is the strava identify is completely decoupled from the nostr post, so it doesn’t leak e.g. location metadata.

workouts are just plain old kind: 1 events and stats are set as tags. this enables lots of fun things to be built on top of the data.

here’s the rub: I have to submit the app for review for others to use it. their ToS requires a link to ā€œview on stravaā€ wherever data is shown. this totally kills it for me as it undermines the decoupling of identity. šŸ˜ž

I still think it's worth it though. Anything to uptick adoption.

I would love to see a solution here. Strava is one of the purer and positive communitiy connecting social apps out there.

I was about to build something similar, can I find your code somewhere?

Cool, I was thinking about just posting notes but this makes it even more interesting

I didn’t ever published it after discovering the crippling limitations they impose.

Please tell me more so I do not waste my time as well

any strava data you display must link back to strava. your app will only be usable by your personal strava account. it must be approved by them before anyone else can use it. you’re not supposed to store any of *their* data.

their api terms of service cover it all. as I stated in the original post, I dont want to couple nostr/strava identities so backlinking is a no go for me.
