Hey fediverse, is there a FOSS follow me app?
Context: I have a friend who hikes. They want to stream their location to me while hiking alone for safety.
Comaps only sends a onetime coordinate and Im not seeing any FOSS solutions. I reeeally dwanna use google maps or some other data sniping app if possible.
Help me Fedi-Wan Kenobi, youre my only hope.
