I cannot understand the long thread on the #OpenStreetMap mailing list about FIXME vs fixme tag. OSM data is so messy and flexible, that any QA should be able to handle that.

@thinkMoult Hello, did you know about the OSM specific mastodon instance? :)

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.

I'm on a #StreetComplete buzz, and I've started suggesting new quests and giving feedback. I'll have to start coding soon.

Local shop finally put a sign outside with their opening hours. It's in #OSM now. 🙂
Our map is like a garden which needs regular attention, just to keep an eye on things.

I really need to improve my #German so that it's good enough to promote, and have discussions about, #diversity and #CodeOfConduct and discrimination and tech and all that.
Real simple goal. 🙂

@GOwin @GOwin you can always just look at the local timeline and stuff. It's a federated software system!

Mastodon allows custom emojis. I'll have to add some custom OpenStreetMap emojis for this instance

I am loving #StreetComplete, the #OpenStreetMap editor. I always thought it was cool, but I've used it heavily over the last few days. I think it's part of the future of #OSM. It's how we can beat Google
