Thanks! Should have simply made a post with a link instead of crosspost to raise awareness of the original post.

Sadly this is also already in use (the positive news is that it's also a FLOSS project!).

openatlas.eu

Damn, the cartography enthusiast in me really likes this one.

Please share it in the original post that I crossposted as well! Will vote for that one.

I just wanted to spread awareness by crossposting, please comment your suggestions in the original thread.

In case someone needs context: Organic Maps was forked by its community awhile ago due to the shareholders not being entirely transparent. Full context: https://sopuli.xyz/post/25540134

That's why I'm also always trying to push the benefits of open data/source/etc onto my employers. It sometimes works too.

It's up to us as individuals to also make a fuss about this stuff here in EU. I love EU but I'm not blindly trusting every corpo that's from EU.

Choose local (in our case European/EU), but not blindly and naively.

Agreed! And communities where people participate are really needed - new users are often met with "news communities" which can be depressing if your whole feed consists of bad news.

Cool idea! And yeah we have already some similar communities:

!dailymaths@lemmy.world (bit quiet)

!dailygames@lemmy.zip

But not any for riddles specifically I think.

!moomin@sopuli.xyz, find them while they are hot

Oh right, pineapple is also a mod on OM. Good idea, hope we'll hear from them soon!

A comment is enough; you can assign me as a moderator by clicking on my comment's three-dot menu button on the default web-UI (not sure if any of the mobile apps have this tool available though).

But I realized now that it could be that you can't assign me as a mod since I am an admin on sopuli server! Need to look into that. We'll see when sunshine comments here. Whether you can assign her as a mod.

I can help moderate the community nevertheless! I have all the mod actions and reports available since I'm an admin on the server this community is hosted on :)

Edit: yeah checked it out, you can't appoint me as a moderator since I am an administrator on the server this community is hosted on. But I'd be happy to help anyway!

An official lemmy community for the project sounds nice! And we've got another FOSS official community here already as well: !joplinapp@sopuli.xyz :)

Pinging Sunshine so she sees this: @Sunshine@lemmy.ca
