Today I found out that it’s actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.

It’s really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

This is a personal collection of things I find around the internet.

So somehow you found this place. Here’s what to expect:

Posts will be random; there are absolutely no themes here.
Posts may be overwhelmingly frequent (sorry about your sub feed).
Posts may be unbearably infrequent; you may forget you subscribed here.
Posts may be oh, so very boring to you.

Due to the nature of this place, you may find a bunch of stuff that you don’t care about, but you may also find a new passion.

So, the gist is, this is a place where I’ll share random things, and you’ll discover the internet with me.
