The two biggest updates are the return of the global Leaderboard and more currencies being accepted when becoming a Supporter.
The Leaderboard displays all public Striders on the map. The markers displayed on the map don’t (currently) update with your filtering. Each person’s marker is purple, and it uses clustering so that you can click the numbered markers to see everyone in busier areas. A little GPS jitter is added to each person on the map, so nobody should be hidden behind anyone else.
You can filter for people in specific countries/regions/cities & view the list based on number of streets completed, or number of cities, or number of countries.
If you have additional ideas for the Leaderboard, please post in #ideas
The Become A Supporter page still displays everything in USD, but a bit of magic happens when you click the Do it! button. Stripe, my payment processor, figures out your local currency & uses that during checkout (and any subsequent subscription renewals). It’s been a long-standing complaint that CityStrides only accepted USD, so I’m hoping this helps a bunch of people by removing extra charges and conversion costs.
Unfortunately, I can’t convert subscriptions to the new setup. If you want to change your subscription, you’ll need to cancel and re-subscribe. If you need help with that, get in touch & be sure to set the topic on that page to “convert subscription” and include a link to your profile in your message explaining what you need from me.
