This could be things that once were commercialized but are now public domain, or have largely resisted commercialization to this day. In this context I mean this as aiming for profit and being sold/monetized.

Geo-caching.
Unfortunately the original non-profit hobby got co-opted by a corporation.
There’s opencaching but it’s dead.
I didn’t know this. Depressingly predictable. Ugh.
Thanks for informing me.
Run by a for-profit company and they do hide a lot of features and even caches behind a premiun subscription.
It’s not that bad though, most do just fine without paying a cent.

I know, I solely use CGEO. It’s awesome. I’ve even logged one premium cache just for the hell of it. It’s just good to mention to people that there’s this premium thing since people bump into it anyway.

Your original comment made it sound like there is no alternative for accessing those premium chaches though
You can go around it but it’s annoying and not really intended for anyone but premium subscribers.
Dunno why some decide to set them premium only

There’s a specific app for that? I see people doing geo caching the same way they do that painted rock thing. Can usually find clues and riddles to find them posted on a physical message board at the community center.
