gotta fail fast

I am interested in doing that. But from what I am told by someone from my country who is a bit deeper into OSM stuff than I am, there are many problems that prevent you from just git push --force the whole government set into the OSM. Stuff like overlapping objects.
There a osmwiki article specifically for government data: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Importing_Government_Data

I think that starting from the beginning on Lemmy is a great opportunity to make news communities make more sense.
Specifically, !worldnews should not exist. It is a relic from Reddit that implies that !news is not for all news but just for news from some part of the world. In my opinion, there should be effort put into making this community as inactive as possible. As that would be the result of people posting news from all over the world in !news.

repost

you know that on Lemmy you can just edit the post, right? Title, url and text, all can be changed.

this is just one of the instances
there are many more instances according to https://farside.link/ (which is a thing that will automatically redirect you to one of them: https://farside.link/teddit/ ) so by using this, you help reduce the load on individual instance, resulting in less "too many requests" errors for everyone.
