my understanding was all modern phones have gps even without cell service. Outdoor mapping without GPS will be very hard. You might try to position PoI roughly based on the position of streets and other features. Maybe, you can fix the edits later at home using sattelite imagery. Also, try posting this on https://community.osm.org

I have noticed that translation of closely related languages are better in Firefox. Although I also feel that is true foe almost all translators

For the social part of the Snapchat, it has a couple of features. Like locations, stories, streaks (which a few in my uni was too much into for some reason). And, let’s be honest, Snapchat was used a lot for sending nudes back in the day, though I doubt OP was asking for that feature.

This post appeared in my timeline yesterday. Thought I would share it with you.

Given how likely right wing conservatives tends to spread misinformation and cite low quality sources, I honestly don’t mind the lack of right wingers.

If you want quote post right now, without having to wait for mastodon to implement it, why not just use misskey or any other *key fork.

Organic map is on f droid

If you are talking about fractional scaling it is not available (probably only available as an experimental setting on debian??). Otherwise, does this work https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#GNOME ?

Yeah. The *key instances are fun to use. It doesn’t feel like using a business email.

Also, check out https://piefed.social/ - it’s not quite ready for the masses yet as it lacks many features, but damn it is so welcoming and friendly and fills me with hope for our future when I see those

Yes. Many people are too hung up on mastodon and lemmy to see that there are other software in fediverse. And if lemmy UI doesn’t quite work for one, they should try a different one. There’s no need to stick to the most popular software.

As for communities, there’s not much one can do about it.

Right when they are in talks about getting bought by Sony

Ok yes. I just checked and the new version is very fast compared to the version lemdroid uses.

The information density in the UI is crazy high.

Lemdro.id uses Photon as it’s default UI, but it’s incredibly slow and sometimes it doesn’t even load properly. As much as I love the polish, I wouldn’t recommend it as default UI. Using photon as an alternative UI is much better option.

Firefox browser, misskey as my SNS. On Android: Komikku (a tachiyomi fork), element X matrix client; on my desktop: rnote for note taking, fractal matrix client.

For some reason I read the first part of the article in 60s news commentator voice in my head.

Also

For those potential members who’ve somehow figured out what they need from a server, it’s hard to understand which servers actually offer those things, either from outside the fediverse itself or from inside it but without a strong network.

Really important point.

“Microsoft ❤️ Linux”

Embedded videos are particularly annoying.

Not terribly fond of their icon as well. Personally, I would be willing to look past the name if they had a better icon.

Well hashtags clearly don’t work quite as well for discovery, which is why there is demand for starter packs. But what happens if other backends don’t implement it? Then people on the other instances, that is not mastodon, doesn’t have a way to opt out.
