I think it’s just super handy to know where you’ve been. Great to be able to find places (“Oh I loved this Thai place I went to 4 years ago in X city”)

Also to be able to find photos in specific locations (if you integrate it with geotagged photos like google does).

It’s one of those things I don’t actively care a ton about in the short term but is useful data to have in the long term if it can persist without a lot of effort.

Edit: I think form is “irrelevant” as long as it’s well supported and can be useable in different services later on. Same thing with notes imo (and why I use markdown). Has enough features but importantly is and will be well supported.

If you mostly walk or bike places, Strava[0] is a great way to record where you have been. I use it mostly for recording my travel (and hikes) since I walk more when visiting other places, not so much at home. Have it start recording in the morning and off in the evening. Pause if I take a bus or train and then can edit to clean it up later. Photos with geo tags can be uploaded and when you look at the map the photos will be at the location you took them. Also has a fun feature where you can replay your walk/hike/etc. It's been awhile since I downloaded my data but it was easy and everything you could want is there. The free tier is everything you need for something like the above
