Very fair. I’ve noticed that google maps really nails the zoom level when you slow down and speed up, to show you the right amoynt of information, whereas Magic Earth doesn’t. I’ll be zoomed in on the motorway at 120 and later zoomed out in a city centre at 30, those two are incompatible.
Magic earth has been good for directions, ime.
I’ve seen a few people doing it, but I (and literally any companies scraping instances for content) just lol and move on.
Oh oops, you haven’t pasted some cool copyleft licence below your words on this niche thread on a niche social media network so looks like I might remix and reuse your content without attribution… Unlucky
It’s not thriving. The devs are prickly arseholes, which is anathema to building a cooperative, volunteer-driven dev community and the tone of many mainstream communities is obnoxiously set by tankies amd their alts.
It’s surely only a matter of time though, right? I mean, their support drops off sharply amlmg younger age-groups. I suspect they’re trying to ram through as much violence now as they can, because the clock’s ticking on such extravagant and uncritical (or only circumspectly critical) support.
Honestly the Lemmy main devs just aren’t that great amd their hardline ideology pushes away plenty of potential help.
Eastern Europe, perhaos. Not really anywhere else in europe.
Can I be pedantic? I’m going to go ahead: fiscal means tax-related, so probably just ‘financial responsibility’ is more what you’re aiming for.
Yea, you can see why, but it is such a hassle for people like OP. I used to have cassette tapes of a really good audiobook of the Lord of the Rings (something like 12 cassettes in a set!), but I just pirated a copy and dotched the cassettes because I had paid for that, and my copy would be awful quality. I have to say this kind of approach, as suggested elsewhere in these comments, seems the only logical outcome for this problem, it’s pretty silly.
But people insist on creating incredibly specific niche communities, I’m certain because they want to establish their own fiefdoms when this “blows up”.
I’m also interested in that, please
Dude, this has got to make you like, at least, a minor celebrity. Normies don’t get pissy posts made about them.
Thank you, i’m going to look into this!
Ha, i have planted a few rasoberry pi zeros running just syncthing in a few relatives’ places for that. I worry about a blackout damaging them, so i have a few. Syncthing is great, as soon as a backup is made, it whisks it off all over the place, amazing.
I have a keepass database synced between a phone, desktop and a Raspberry Pi 1. The Pi just sits as an always-on server. I don’t edit it on my phone. Here’s my problem: when I edit something on my desktop and save it I invariably get a file conflict error and have to force the Pi to accept the new ‘conflicted’ file from my desktop. Any idea why? It’s incredibly annoying!
It lacks the massive audience to bear non-nerd communities. The formula1 subs are not a patch on reddit, nor are the outdoorsy, camping and flashlight communities.
Condescension is a terrible way to kindle enthusiasm. C’mon, if you know this shit, extend a hand to those who don’t.
Done, I’ve downloaded it and will test drive it for a couple weeks, thanks!
Waking up to a broken nextcloud (overnight! Look, no hands!) was the single reason I finally got acquainted with docker containers
