#tripplanner — Public Fediverse posts

Played around a bit with https://vahrplan.de/de/transitous, which gained @transitous support in June, apparently. Quite an interesting idea, feels light and snappy, comes up a bit short in several aspects but the really distinguishing bit is the chart view you can see in the screenshot here: you can visually compare all the options, see how they split, converge and pass each other in time and distance of transfer point to destination. I like it, though whether you will will likely depend on how nice you find this particular feature… Since here's the list of limitations:
- Connections in the list view are sorted by departure time, NOT arrival time. If you pick the first one, you may find yourself taking a slower route
- There's no way to search for stops or addresses in a particular city, which is sorta a problem when you now support large swathes of the world in one dataset 😅
- You can't select places from a map, either
- Only German language version

I think it's a good planner for the right person, and it does take into account real-time updates where Transitous has them - try it and see if it fits your use cases!

J'ai découvert par hasard ici l'existence de #KDEItinerary, est-ce qu'on a un équivalent (fdroid) pour les road trips (en voiture donc) ?

The #NJTransit app, which helps me get around the #USA state in which I currently reside, has decided about 2 weeks ago to stop processing addresses. I have informed the responsible parties.

Specifically its #TripPlanner module. It should take an address input, and recognize it. It no longer recognizes anything. Not even the simplest of town names.

So I'm guessing that the remote API changed, and no-one cared to inform the app maintainers.

And thanks. :(
