I think you've mis-tagged that and it should be highway=milestone.

I read this this morning and was raging that they didn't mention OSM at all in it!!

Wilmott worries that these maps, now dominant, lack information that more traditional maps like Britain’s Ordnance Survey (OS) still have: “An OS map shows you where a stile is for horses; I’m not sure Google Maps even knows what a stile is. When you’re surveying a space, you find that information but geo AI doesn’t have that information. I’m from Australia – you can look at a space where Google Maps might tell you to walk a route through tall long grass, but if you’re from a place you know: there will be snakes in there. Most of this kind of mapping, because it was developed out of urban maps, privileges urban information, not rural information.”

OSM absolutely knows what a stile is.

Music-wise: Radio stations "oh but the radio sucks" yeah but online radio stations don't. They don't have any ads. Start with NTS 1 and 2 and go from there. Last.fm browsing USER pages. RYM user pages. Online music guides written by real people. Recommendations from friends- real people.

Video-wise: I honestly don't watch youtubers. Their output and quality isn't up to snuff. No I don't care about speedruns, about "internet rabbit holes" about any of that. About people restoring old gear. About basically anything. So I watch actual TV shows and actual movies, and you guessed it, I get those recommendations from REAL PEOPLE.

I deleted my original comment cos I felt it was a little negative but somehow that didn't propagate across the fediverse.. weird!

I use Organic Maps for daily use, and OSMAnd for outdoors activities like hiking etc. The added info and features in OSMAnd are indispensable for outdoors use.

I take steps to prevent algorithms from dictating what I listen to and watch. Algorithmically-decided culture feels utterly wrong to me.

OH I forgot! Delocated. Adult Swim live action from the (late) 2000s. Very funny.

Harvey Birdman, Off The Air, SuperJail, Space Ghost Coast to Coast.. most adult swim shows from the mid 2000s

Can you add BRouter into OSMand?

I've been getting into a recipe book lately that regularly suggests using the zest of a lemon/lime as well as just the juice. I can't believe I used to throw it away! It adds a slight bitter counterbalance as well as some nice floral notes to whatever I'm preparing.

Hi there, I was going to post this on your crosspost on !ultralight@lemmy.world which is where I saw this first. I see that you're more of an end user rather than someone uploading this info, but I'm gonna dump my spiel regardless I'm afraid:

If you are going to put this info somewhere I would suggest you dump the info on OpenStreetMap. The information you put onto OSM will get used EVERYWHERE else- komoot, alltrails, Osmand, Organic Maps, you name it. And the license is permissive so everyone else can use it. All Trails (to take an example) is all very well and good but all the nice pics, all the info, all your time and energy gets put into their nice little closed website which they then use to make THEIR website better and nobody else's!

So at the very least, put the info you collect into OpenStreetMap first, and then elsewhere. There is a lot more info you can put into OSM than you may think at first glance. Width of trails, Trail difficulty, trail visibility, etc etc. All this gets put into tags. (even trail dangers if I remember correctly) This info then will improve the hiking experience for everyone using a mapping application around where you have mapped. (Everyone of course, except for people using google maps or apple maps, yuk!)

Now this extra bit is tailored more towards your original question, as an end user. The closest thing I can think of is https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/ as someone else put in here. The info, of course, comes from OSM. If the trail you are looking for isn't marked there, you can put it into OSM and it will eventually make it onto that website. (As well as Osmand, and Organic Maps, and Komoot, and... you get me)

I know you're asking about transmission, but.. Qbittorrent has an option in the GUI that allows you to specify what network interface it uses to communicate through. Therefore if your VPN isn't up, it won't use your normal network. And if your VPN drops out, it also won't use your normal network. Just another option in case you're interested.
