Good and all, but as somebody mentioned on the Masto comments this shouldn’t be needed, this is taking an open JSON file and turning it into a proprietary Google-only format so that Organic Maps can import it, that feature should be on the app itself already.
Also as you’re uploading that data to a random website you’re effectively doxxing yourself as your important addresses likely will be there, your home, your workplace, etc.
I understood it was Google-only, great to be mistaken about it. Still, the app should also support that geojson importation format too, there shouldn’t be a need for external tools, SPECIALLY since it’s what Google Takeout gives you, this very much should be a feature of the app.
I doubt the actual “feature” is much more than a single line that tells GDAL to translate it from one format to the next, so the real thing here is the convenience of having a webpage that provides this special case as a service. Geojson is easy to read in essentially every language now, so this shouldn’t have been hard to do even before this website.

Now that this project exists, I’m sure it’d be relatively trivial to implement in the app
