Strava seem to have removed their activity map styles of \u2018Black Lives Matter\u2019, \u2018Pride\u2019 and \u2018Support Ukraine\u2019. Presumably this is part of getting ready for their IPO and not wanting to have a potentially damaging narrative about whether they are \u2018too woke\u2019. I always wondered when this would happen, given the broad anti-diversity and inclusion narrative that has emerged this year. Old activities with these map styles are unchanged, but you can\u2019t select these maps anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
