need to share my location with some people, are there any services that respect privacy? paid is alright as long as im the only one who has to pay (like if i can be a paid user but free users can view my location)

just dont wanna use google maps but if thats all there is then whatever

already checked out owntracks and zood, neither worked for me (needs to be cross platform)

EDIT: in response the responses, no self hosting, and has to be just ready to install, no buildning it yourself

im willing to sacrifice privacy here over ease of use, just hope i dont have to

    Companies do share data either directly or indirectly, so I don’t think your approach of spreading it out is as effective as you think it is. Still not the worst thing to do in addition to other measures though. Another thing is to use a unique email address for each site to make that one common data point no longer common.

      Yep I do the email thing. And yeah, I know they all share everything, but at least I make them work for it.
