You’re all welcome in [email protected] to discuss antying OSM-related.
The namechange of the Gulf has been discussed on our forum; how to deal with this has been decided in consensus.
And, obligated self-promo: if you want to start contributing to OSM, you can try https://mapcomplete.org/ (which is someting else then the StreetComplete app, but that one is nice too!)
TBH, I assisted with some linux installs and setting up a dual boot was troublesome. Installing a clean install worked easier!
If you have an old, spare laptop around, I recommend trying linux first with that laptop before making the plunge.
Looks cool! However, there is with badge.team also a similar app platform which they used on https://flow3r.garden/, on the MCH22-badge and the now in preorder namatsu: https://shop.nicolaielectronics.nl/products/tanmatsu?variant=55608856183133 (which I just ordered two of)
Someone did in the mean time: https://github.com/pqoqubbw/icons/issues/4
Yeah, and Wikipedia, linux,… have become important as well, without big corpo
All of you are invited on [email protected]
Also checkout the many editing tools, such as https://mapcomplete.org, https://streetcomplete.app,…
Because the northern hemisphere is mostly land mass and the southern hemisphere is mostly ocean. Land heats faster and cools faster than ocean, thus the seasonal effects are more pronounced in the data.
Same with CO2 patterns which gives a similar yearly ‘breathing effect’
Cool! I love the concept of Mobilizon, but the user experience has bitten me quite often. Gancio looks really nice!
Yes, but actually, no. For a ton of projects, Github is an important resource. It is the main collaboration tool through the issue trackers, offers hosting and continuous integration. If it fell of the earth today, a lot of projects would scramble and have a lot of lost (meta)data.
If they were to announce that they would shut down in three months time, those same projects would scramble as well to migrate - which is also a bit chaotic, but less so.
And: many projects are switching away right now. I moved mapcomplete to a selfhosted forgejo instance since a few months ('cause I don’t trust github no more), Organic Maps moved just now cause they got a (temporary) ban. One of their contributors was apperantly from a US-sanctioned country (more info about them here: https://en.osm.town/@[email protected]).
