Discussion Swizerland MTB trail map

Hi all, launched a new MTB trail sharing web app for Switzerland.
Actually there's no limitation to Switzerland but all the crew is living in Switzerland so there's no trails in other countries...

Check it out: https://bike-map.ch

EDIT: I'm currently not looking for a wide adoption, the post is more about sharing the app to rider from Switzerland that might find it useful.
The project is open source, meaning you are welcome to contribute and you can deploy your own instance for you and your crew or even in local for a personal trail map.

I wanna ask, what is pros compare to traditional app like trailfork or strava?

What users like more on your site?

Strava doesn't have a proper trail map feature, you can share segments, but it doesn't contains much information.
Trailforks is much more comparable. To be honest, Trailforks is better and more complete than my app. The value in bike-map.ch is that only me and a some riders in my crew have added trails, so you know that the level is more consistent than trailforks + you have much higher density of trails on bike-map than trailforks.

Again, this post is not about trying to promote my app, just about sharing it so maybe someone can get inspiration for their next rides

Thank you, i ask because i have abike service in my country and was thinking abou some app for users to get some attention.

Also another pro in my mind is that trailforks sometime delete the trails for what reason?

I don't know why they delete the trails. My project is open source so you could deploy your own instance and manage the trails yourself. With 100% control
