    hi @Siphonay
    I saw you've created a #pokemon instance. Since there are propably many that like to play #pokemongo, I can highly recomend #streetcomplet

    An app that asks you to go around your neighbarhood/city adding missing informations to #openstreetmap.

    It's somehow gamified and does a great service in a collective manner of improofing maps of free access.

    on #fdroid it's here:

    THIS IS IT! My company is finally switching from Google Maps to OpenStreetMap!

    This is challenging: we need maps, but also Geocoding and reverse, Directions, addresses autocomplete… https://switch2osm.org lists some libs, but I’d love to hear from real devs. Do you have resources and tips to share? Feedback on how to configure the different libs? E.g. nominatim often doesn’t find addresses, but I’m sure it can be tweaked.

    Hello @iona. Thanks for voicing out this issue.

    I just added a no-right turn restriction for you in that intersection where you said it's not allowed, but checking further, there seems to be no reason why it didn't let you turn left earlier.

    Feel free to make the necessary fixes on #OpenStreetMap, to help make a better map of your favorite places.

    @ND3JR it's worth using (and contributing to) POI on #OpenStreetMap. When I was in Cuba with no internet, OSM was a life saver!

    Beginning June 11, no more free API key for Google Maps (now Google Maps Platform) if you don't provide a credit card.

    A lot of custom Google maps that have been created over the years will likely no longer work.

    Time to use #leaflet and #openstreetmap

    Have you heard of StreetComplete? It's an Android app that shows you open questions/issues with OpenStreetMap in your area, and asks you to answer them.

    It's made for people with no experience with #OpenStreetMap, so it shows only very simple questions that can be answered very clearly. ("What is printed on this street sign?", "What's the number on this house?")

    It's available on @fdroidorg, of course! #mapping #android #apps #recommendation

    #GetTogether didn't pick that city, I typed that into the search bar. It does work when I type a city about 20km from me, Waterloo, Ontario. But I don't find that very intuitive ("Pick a location where you're not..."). For improved #UX that list should be populated as soon as the dropdown is selected, perhaps narrowing down as letters are typed. Even better, have several pick lists, one for country, one for region, one for locality (the terms used in vCards). For even better UX have a map locator ("Click on the map to indicate your location"). But of course use #OpenStreetMap, not Google Maps :)

      Each year, Mozilla puts on the Mozilla Global Sprint, a two-day event for volunteers around the world to contribute to open source projects. I learned about it because I'm participating in the Mozilla Open Leadership Training (more on that in another post!). The Global Sprint will take place May 10-11th, from 9am to 5pm local time. For ODK to participate as a project, all we have to do is have at least one "project lead" who will be available to help connect volunteers to tasks, work on some co...

    Hello fediverse! https://lib.reviews/ is a free/open/nonprofit alternative to proprietary review sites like #Goodreads, #Yelp, #IMDB.

    It plugs into #opendata sources: #Wikidata, #OpenLibrary and #OpenStreetMap (OSM integration is very basic at this point). Still a long way to go but we have a small community and lots of reviews already.

    @z428 Diese Form der Aufklärung ist wirklich dringend erforderlich. Allerdings ist sie auch gleichermaßen schwierig: Problem besteht dabei, dass die Wahrnehmung nicht nur rein auf Fakten sondern auch auf Emotionen basiert. Bedeutet: Der Verzicht auf #Google-Dienste wird gleichermaßen mit dem Verlust der Teilnahme und des Zugangs zu "wichtigen" Informationen wahrgenommen. Das es aber adäquate, gar bessere Möglichkeiten gibt fällt dabei aus der Betrachtung. Da ich derzeit eine solche Diskussion abseits auch habe: #Google-Maps <> #OpenStreetMap

    Es braucht da wirklich viel Geduld und leider wird das mehrmalige Erklären auch wiederum als "Bevormundung" wahrgenommen. @majestyx

    Rendering #OpenStreetMap data of #Pondicherry in two different forms.

    1. Raster format (collection of pngs rendered) nearly 50mb.
    2. Vector format rendering on-demand on-device of size in few hundred kbs :-)
