Looking for an open source or self hosted map tool similar to google my maps (lemm.ee)

Basically looking for an open source alternative to google my maps, to plan out trips or share recommendations with friends.

I've tried using uMap (OSM) for mexico city, but it has a lot of missing or outdated data.

I use osmand on Android. Bit of a leaning curve to start as you need to download the maps you want and set up features, but then it is available offline as well and can include topographical and trails or other data if you're not just traveling in cities.

gpx studio visualizes the altitudes and path surfaces in charts. i import the resulting file into osmand and hit navigate.

Yeah, I hadn't heard of it, but it looks really cool. Gonna have to try that out.

I had no idea they have hiking trails! You opened a whole new world for me!
