Looks like being woke didn't help the financial troubles that Strava was in throughout the past year and I think this news was skipped over by many during Christmas but the latest round of financial hurt at Strava is that they fired 15% of their employees just a couple weeks before Christmas! Sure was nice and woke of Strava to do this just before Santa made an appearance.

People are losing jobs across the tech industry. I don't believe it has to be with "woke" - more than they grew too fast for a while. And not enough paid members...just like letsrun.
And to ring in the New Year, Strava hiked their monthly subscription prices by more than 25%. Where are all the left wingers that are attacking Elon Musk for cutting costs and raising revenue at Twitter?
Yeah, I checked my e-receipts, it was originally $69.99/month here in Canada, now it is $99.99/month, so I didn't renew. I keep getting notices from them that it is 45% off as a promo, I click the link, it's full price.

This can't happen to Letsrun.com, since it's protected by a large trust fund.

I'm a left winger and I've never paid for Strava because we'll, why would I? I also wouldn't pay for any other social media experience for the same reason. Who gives a flip about Musk? He's just another dude that has no bearing on my life. Why is everyone obsessed with giving other people so much attention and power over them?

Holy sh*t that’s pricey! I thought Strava was just a place to log your runs and follow other runners. What on earth else does it do to warrant a monthly cost like that?
1. You can change the colouration of your map to support any number of left wing causes in the "map type" bar.
2. They will often have notifications, such as "John Smith reached their weekly mileage goal".
3. In the gender settings, it has a field for "non-binary" and "prefer not to say". It's also worth noting that it records a person's gender, as opposed to their sex, which is odd, as sex would obviously be the greater distinguishing feature on an exercise app. It also refers to a person as a "man" rather than a "male" - which must be strange for underage users.
4. I distinctly remember an editorial that was sent out via email (by Strava) after the summer of 2020, in which a list of ways Strava was assisting BLM was outlined.

I also distinctly remember Strava promoting BLM at the time of the riots but now can find no trace of Strava announcing their allegiance to BLM. It's like Strava scrubbed all mention of their official support of BLM to all Strava users. Who knew that supporting the BLM and the riots they caused wasn't a good idea?
