Yes #OpenStreetMap changeset count isn't totally a relevant figure, but it's still fun.

Let us have our fun! 😛 #xp

100 Million Edits to OpenStreetMap! The collective contribution of nearly 1 billion features globally over 16 years, by over 1.5 million mappers. Changeset 100,000,000 was uploaded by user Lamine Ndiaye, adding buildings in Nianiane, Sénégal. https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2021/02/25/100-million-edits-to-openstreetmap/

”TikTok is introducing Americans to a question that Europeans have struggled with for 20 years: a lot of your citizens might use an Internet platform created somewhere that doesn’t know or care about your laws or cultural attitudes and won’t turn up to a committee hearing.”

#privacy #TikTok #tech

Sometime in the next ~10hr, the 100,000,000th changeset will be added to #OpenStreetMap!

What I did in #OpenStreetMap in Jan. 2021.

A journalist emailed me months ago asking if they could ask me some questions about corporate influence in OSM. I said sure, had a nice chat with them. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-02-19/openstreetmap-charts-a-controversial-new-direction is the resulting article that came out today. I think it is a factual and balanced article overall and I struggle to understand why people throw disparaging remarks at me on Twitter. I'm quoted saying that corporate mappers don't map for the same reasons as the rest of us - that's obvious right? They get paid, we don't?

I wonder how to tag Informed Consent for #trans people in #OpenStreetMap ... 🤔

I've started an #OSM discussion, to try to hammer out how to add it to OSM. Reply to that mailing list, or here, or whatever.

“The beauty of the #OpenStreetMap project is its ability to incorporate different viewpoints,”

Oh yes! We are all able to edit the same one #OSM commonly owned database, and different interest groups can do different things, and that's great. 🙂 #xp
