“One good nutrition app runs $40–$100 a year; covering everything SparkyFitness covers means three or four subscriptions, per person, and still no single report across them.”

SparkyFitness

MyFitnessPal Premium is $79.99 a year per person, and that's only the food part. SparkyFitness tracks the whole family on your own server for zero.

FiveByFive

MyFitnessPal wants $79.99 a year before you've lifted anything. FiveByFive does the 5x5 progression and the plate math for nothing.

“Fitness apps have become bloated subscription machines ($80/yr for StrongLifts or MyFitnessPal).”

Headwind

Ride apps rent you your own ride history by the month. Headwind keeps every pedal stroke on your own box, for free.

“I didn't want another subscription or another service holding the only useful copy of my ride history, so I started building my own self-hosted cycling archive.”

Antimatter

Mattermost started paywalling features it used to give away and sells the rest by the seat. Antimatter is the fork with the licence checks pulled out: SSO, LDAP, no nag screens, no invoice.

“Unfortunately, after a few disappointments at a previous company actually trying (and giving up) to buy a licence, and after their latest actions, which I could only call backstabs (paywalling previously available features, putting arbitrary limits that previously didn't exist, or recently adding nag screens to push people into either buying their licence or just away from their platform altogether), I've ended up fed up with their BS and started to work on a fork.”
