Thanks. I'll continue my small contributions then.

If anyone want to help I can recommend StreetComplete. It's a bit like pokemon go, but you'll help improve the map of the world instead. Only in android now I think.

OSM is good people and very much within the FOSS ethos as far as I can tell. Their Humanitarian work is just awesome: https://www.hotosm.org/

Ohhh interesting, just grabbed it on F-droid. I'll be playing around with this for a while.

Oh I should do that, I'm often in new builds and redevelopments, I'd think that's where it's needed most?

[–] CAVOK@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think it's needed everywhere. I can start it wherever I happen to be and find a lot of "quests/tasks" to complete.

Thanks yeah I've downloded it and there are loads of little quests, I'll give it a try
