The end of the road - we're closing down πŸ₯Ή

The end of Pinmapple πŸ₯Ή

Hello dear travelers on Hive, @martibis here. Today I am here to share some sad news. We've decided to shut @pinmapple down. It's been a long and super rewarding journey both for the team and the travel community on Hive, but at this point as a team we feel we're burned out on the project and want to focus on other aspects of our lives. After curating travel content each day for 7 years, this is of course not entirely unexpected. The fact we have been at it this long speaks to how much we do love (and still love) the project and the entire Hive travel community that has come into existence around it. As a team, we're super grateful to all of you who have ever pinned a pin on @pinmapple. The project could never have been what it is without all of you. ❀️

What we as a community have achieved

  • Total Pins: 114,030 (it's pretty crazy there are more than hundred-thousand pins on the map)
  • Featured Posts: 32,971 (these have been highlighted by the curation team!)
  • Total Users: 5,459 (this is all of you)

You can zoom anywhere in the world and find a post by one of you. Pretty incredible.

Details of closing down

We'll pull the plug early June, and stop curating end of May. This means there will be no more #traveldigest from the end of May and the domain https://pinmapple.com will no longer show any pins. The Discord will be deleted and the community on Hive will no longer be moderated. That said, we would love for someone to carry on the torch under a different brand name. So I'll take some time to update the open source code base + make a back up of our database as well (for the devs here, it might be worth working together with a HAF provider). With regards to our DHF proposal. It would be appreciated if current voters could leave their vote up until mid June, after which I will close down the proposal myself.

A brief timeline of @pinmapple

Opensource technical stack

Pinmapple: the main application users interact with
Fastcurate: our internal curation tool (allows for making a selection for daily digest + auto posts / votes the final curation to the Hive blockchain)
Haveyoubeenhere: a standalone mobile application that integrates with Hive / Pinmapple

  • Pinmapple: NextJS front-end
  • Pinmapple: NodeJS back-end
  • Pinmapple: Automated pin detection (NodeJS + HiveSQL)
  • Pinmapple: MySQL DB (incl. current data)
  • Fastcurate: NextJS front-end
  • Fastcurate: NodeJS back-end
  • Haveyoubeenhere: flutter front-end
  • Haveyoubeenhere: NodeJS back-end
  • Haveyoubeenhere: MySQL DB

Please note no GitHub URLs are posted yet as I want to entirely refactor the opensource repositories to make it easier for others to carry on the Pinmapple mission. In a follow up post these will be shared too.

Last but absolutely not least

A big thank you to the curation team. @livinguktaiwan without whom the project would've never lasted as long as it did. @choogirl for literally being there from the very start. @lizanomadsoul for curating & a lot of shared travel memories and @ybanezkim26 as the latest curation member and being a genuinely kind soul.

Goodbye @pinmapple see you all in another chapter

Our pinmapple mascot only has these cool happy vibes because of all of you. Thank you.

This made me sad. This community was the very first that inspired me to travel more πŸ˜₯. But this won't stop me either in traveling 😁
Hope curators will remain supportive to community members even without TD... Thanks for the opportunity you've given us. It was a worthwhile journey with the pinmapple team.

Good luck with whatever project you'll have in the future. Pinmapple was a success.

Awww dang. I totally understand. It is a lot of your personal time to give and give and give and give. But I am so sad. Pinmapple has always been my fave.

Thank you for all you have done for hive, for the travel community and for curating a few posts of mine over the years. It always felt like a BIG win to get featured on the map.

Sad news, but looks like a very practical and healthy decision by the team. The fact that it is on the blockchain and code is open source means that all of your hard work for so many years does not have to go to waste if another team is ready to continue working on it as you suggested. My thanks to you and your team for your wonderful work all these years. Thank you very much.

Very sad to read this, as Pinmapple was one of the very few aspects of engaging with the Hive blockchain which kept me going, through the challenge of answering (of myself) my oft-asked question - "What are you doing in there?"

For the rest of the Hive blockchain ...

"That said, we would love for someone to carry on the torch under a different brand name."

... it will be interesting for them to find out if anyone steps up to this challenge. Big shoes to fill! 🫑

Thank you so much for everything, it was en epic ride. The travel community that centered around Pinmapple was my favorite place on Hive. Thanks again, you will be missed and never forgotten.

Oh so sorry to hear. I'm a member of the @pinmapple family who has been inspired to write and hang out at the hive every day. I can't think of where to post my travel posts now. I am really feeling very sad and don't know where to post now. Well, you guys must have taken the decision after careful consideration and I respect that. Hope pinmapple team will now focus on their life.

Thanks for your services, I will remember you in every travel post.

Tech side of things should be easy to keep running and I think I can help with that. Also I think it shouldn't be that hard to renovate it to be a HAF based app on the backend. I'm looking forward for code & docs.

What's the hard part is the users and curators engagement.

What a crazy, great, and long journey with all of you traveling around the globe with us every day for over 7 years! Thanks @pinmapple community for sharing your experiences, your travels, and your thoughts with us. Thanks @everyone for taking us with you! And thanks team: @livinguktaiwan @choogirl @ybanezkim26 for the steady and great work curating the posts every day. Thanks also to @blocktrades @theycallmedan @gtg @detlev and all the other whales and community leaders supporting us! - without you, this journey would have been over long before now.

It was a hard decision and of course, we are also sad about it. I am very honored to be part of this international team - I will miss you guys <3. Of course, we would love it, if someone took over the project and kept it alive. I am happy to help - Who knows, the biggest lesson IΒ΄ve learned on my travels is: Anything is possible

It comes with a shock and sadness as Pinmapple was one of my favourite projects since the Steemit era.

Thank you so much for letting us use your platform and able to "place a pin on the map" with our adventures. It made me really think about how to write and introduce the place I visited / review with a deeper thought (since it is on blockchain anyways)

Really hope that there will be another team to take on the torch that lights the way for anyone who wants to travel and got some honest reviews from locals and patrons, so that all your heart-work and dedication on this wonderful project is not in vain.

Feeling sad as a general user, I loved #Pinmapple from where the unseen world could be explored. It is time to transfer the project to other users, especially some devs, as I have no knowledge regarding coding and background processing, otherwise, I would be very happy to run the project. If anyone is ready to opt in I am with them as a volunteer to keep the great show on in the Hive Blockchain.
I really want to thank @livinguktaiwan , @choogirl , @lizanomadsoul and @ybanezkim26 for their hard work throughout these years. I know how strong devotion is needed to be so punctual and so regular in preparing the #travel digest every day!
I hope the community lasts forever with our efforts. We will have a good team again to run the project.

It will be a very sad closure to loose all those more than hundred-thousand pins, #traveldigest probably is the biggest community on hive ? Can't you transfer the same domain if other people come forward to continue this ? I can help as a part timer if any other team is taking it forward.

This is so heartbreaking to read. This is my 7th year on the chain and no doubt my beginnings on here were with you. Pinmapple and its team were amongst the very few ones who gave me a chance and boosted my posts to reach more people out there for which I'll forever be grateful. Pinmapple, you will be deeply missed! πŸ˜”

I'm really sorry to hear that. Pinmapple might be the most user-shared community on Hive, and it had a great team. I don't know if there's a way to keep it going, a lot of people have asked that in the comments and I'm asking the same thing. If there's a way to keep it going, I'd love to help.

You will surely be missed, Pinmapple. It’s sad to hear about the closure, was just planning to create and share my pins to the Hive world. Anyways, I wish the moderators and community all the fun ❀️

It doesn't feel right to "like" this post. It hits hard when such a long-lasting project ends; I've been pinning posts for ages, maybe since day one. Hopefully someone is able to take over and continue.

Man, I was planning to make use of Pinmaple for my next blog, but such a shame indeed. By repositories, will they be available to the next person who may take the interest of reviving this? Just curious (not that I'm good at programming myself)

Thank you from my heart, @martibis et al, for the immense work you've done, from aperitivo hour at the Blues Brothers' bar in Guardia Sanframondi, BN, Italia...

You and this community have encouraged me hugely to document, share and reflect on my travels these past years - the vision of the project is powerful-wonderful and leaves an epic legacy!

Happy travels to us all!

What a really sad new... I'm very sorry I understand the reasons and I just feel thankful for this wonderful community since the first moment I joined it. Hope someone else, any other users here could do something, but in any case Pinmapple is part of my Hive life and I will always appreciate the kind support of all the curators πŸ™πŸ’– and I will miss it and the pins on the map too πŸ˜ͺ

I found out about this decision today πŸ˜•

I haven't been here long, but Pinmmaple was one of the first communities that drew me here.
I wanted to pin all my trips on a map, so that it would serve as a reminder, if and when I get dementia πŸ™‚
At the same time, an one yellow bedz is the only one that I put next to my profile picture during this time...
Good luck wherever you go, I believe you will be successful, because whoever led this kind of community in another job has to be brilliant.

That is a big shame, there have been quite a few projects in the last few months that have wound up or are shutting down on Hive.
Was one of my favourite communities on Hive. Good luck in the future.
