Mobilizon v/s Nextcloud (v/s other?) for a network of people event calendar

I have been given the task of finding a proper platform for building a network of education, medical and other initiatives in my country, that have all the same focus (I am sorry I can’t give details yet on the project, but you could probably could get a grasp of the idea if you think in something like a church whose...

Cool! I love the concept of Mobilizon, but the user experience has bitten me quite often. Gancio looks really nice!

In Chiba city, it is described as “The sky above the port”

I used this one or a similar one a while back. Pure magic. It started downloading a ton of stuff, and half an hour later I was greated by a (slow) macOS, good enough to do some tests of my webapp on Safari.

As European, thatvis not true in my case! (I get funded by them)

Seeking: Kid-friendly Adventure/Exploration Games (PC)

My daughter (4) is very into exploring cities, homes and villages in Skyrim, feeding aliens in No Man’s Sky, and cleaning houses in House Flipper. She gets annoyed in games like House Flipper because she can’t leave the property to explore all of the visible houses on the block. I’d like to find other PC games that are...

There will never be ‘more momentum’ if you don’t build it. Just kick it off and host this person, others will follow.

What do you all do on your phones that isn't doom-scrolling or mindless mini games?

I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I’m wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.

I use maps for navigation (mostly OsmAnd) and improve OpenStreetMap with my self-made website (mapcomplete.org)

Correct. Naming of ubuntu is always . of release. The LTS’es are supported for four years, so when 24.04 is released, the 20.04 will be EOL

!openstreetmap - but that’s also because I helped to get it going during the first reddit-waves ;)

Yes. I’m mostly developing a website, and testing on another browser is necessary every now and then. But that is my only use reason.

My main browser used to be firefox till tw9 weeks qgo, but it started to be buggy so it’s LibreWolf now.

Join our community: !openstreetmap

Also, you answered the question backwards, but I don’t mind XD

Look for a local hackerspace, they might have the right connections. Most of them have regular (often weekly) ‘social nights’ where you can hang out.

Mapcomplete.osm.be/hackerspaces has an (incomplete) listing

Well, I’m doing my best to get the !openstreetmap community started. Once there is enough activity here, the critical mass becomes self-reinforcing and it takes off.

And it’s not as if all of Reddit will switch over right away - Twitter is still somewhat alive too; but Mastodon gained enough momentum now to actually matter and to be at a sustainable level.

No. Both package the same OSM-data, but they use a different binary format.

Has anyone used or contributed to OpenStreetMap?

I’ve tried using it over the years but I never liked it because there was no information. So last night I looked at my local city and there is almost no information at all. I spent a few hours last night adding buildings and restaurants and removing incorrect items. It was actually kind of fun and therapeutic and I plan to do...

Hi! Wrong sub? No worries, our subredditcommunity (!openstreetmap) is right here as well!

Did you also know that Apple Maps and Bing Maps use OSM data too in some areas, for some types of categories? Bing even has cloned an OSM-editing program.

Furthermore, you can use mapcomplete.osm.be to add shops or other POI. (Obligatory shill as I’m the main dev of that one ;) )

Google is supposed not to copy OSM…

Sorry, but HERE-maps does not use OSM data. They list their sources here: …here.com/…/general-content-supplier-terms-and-no…
