Command for finding the nearest station to a dropped location pin #2

Closed patcon closed 3 years ago

Right now, the only way to find the station nearest to a specific location is to send a "🚲 🙏 " request, which will also generate a ride code. Running this too many times might raise suspicion of the account.

It would be great if there was another chat command for checking for nearest location without requesting a bike code, for example "🤷" in a dropped pin message. This would be particularly helpful when looking for the nearest place to dock a bike, if you're not sure where.

(This doesn't require an authorized API call.)
