Someone just needs to make an open central hub for segments and leaderboards per activity type.

Then you need a way to block and nuke toxic segments and submitters, a voting system perhaps.

Detecting segments during an activity is tricky and I've been meaning to investigate it further perhaps via ChatGPT explainer but I know it involves lat/lon bounding boxes, detecting the start/end points within those points.

I vaguely remember Strava has some kind of patent on segments though.

Strava does have multiple patents related to segments including defining and matching segments but Garmin Connect and Ride With GPS have had segments too for years: https://support.ridewithgps.com/hc/en-us/articles/4419581503...
