tallshiph/t to my friend @mjj for bringing this to my attention.
In other news, Google was, for lack of a better term, convicted for being a monopoly, just a couple of days ago in a court case brought by the Attorney General of (I think) Iowa - I'm sure there will be others here reading this that know more about that and what's to be expected next in the fake world of justice, but so far so good 👍
Anyway, point being, One man can make a difference in the world, and everyone should consider contributing to #OSM.

1 man decided to take on Google Maps, 20 years later #OpenStreetMap is still going strong From internet protocols and operating systems, to databases and cloud services, some technology is so omnipresent most people don’t even know it exists The same can be said about #OpenStreetMap, the community-driven platform that serves companies and software developers with geographic data and maps so they can rely a little less on the proprietary incumbents in the space https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/10/one-man-decided-to-take-on-google-maps-20-years-later-openstreetmap-is-still-going-strong/
