I switched to Kobo a few years and couldn't be happier. I hated supporting Amazon.

I have not been able to find it. It may have been on the US Slack, but I can not remember and am not logged in to that at the moment.

I will see if I can find the particular message where that was said.

The way it was described to me on Mastadon was that, until your area has their own server, you can use the French server. It will work because each picture has its own consistent ID, which won't change once they are moved to a new server when it comes online. If they changed their mind, I didn't know.

I use the command line interface to upload mine, but the web UI is good as well, though a bit slower.

I stopped using Mapillary because I just couldn't stand using a Meta product anymore. Panoramax has way less footage, but I started contributing to it myself and then using the footage in OSM.

I found this on the OSM wiki:

Lyft welcomes feedback and suggestions on improving the editing process. When members of the editing team receive feedback or comments on a changeset, it is considered a top priority to respond and make corrective action on their OSM edits if required. If you have any questions about the editing process, or a specific edit done by the Lyft team, please reach out by sending an email to dct-osm(at)lyft.com. Responses to inquiries received are typically sent within two business days. skudrashou_lyft and technician_lyft are acting as a primary contact person for the team.

While I admit having updated streetside images would be great, I might be too lazy to reach out to ask :D

If you look at the user's profile that added it, does it by any chance say they work for Lyft? I've never seen that particular source before.

I came here to post this. What a fantastic series!

I don’t mind keeping it outside but it’s getting to the point of the year where it gets cold at night. I have found a wide range of answers on if they can handle winter weather. Do you have personal experience with them? I’d love to hear what you think!

I’m in north Texas so it doesn’t usually get THAT cold, but I can always bring it in on freezing nights if necessary.

 

I have no idea why but my foxtail fern has taken off in the last few days. I’ve been having to turn it every day due to the tops always facing towards the window every night.

I can't wait to see what it turns out like!

[–] End0fLine@midwest.social 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It actually exists now.

Data quality isn’t quite there yet. I’m biased though as I’m an OpenStreetMap contributor.

My plant loving aunt has been resistant to this one but I'm trying!

 

I found this what I assume to be tradescantia zebrina last winter as a little stem with three leaves laying on the ground. It has turned into one of my favorite plants over the last year!
