I daydream of publishing a hyperlocal news source, but if it's too location-specific, it reveals where I live. Not sure how to keep the focus tight and control my ambitions while preserving my privacy. Going for a larger geographic area and limiting the subject matter might be an easier way to keep the scope small, but I don't want to tie my hands in terms of what I cover.
Any suggestions? Shitposts and pooptoots welcome, as well as serious responses.
I just released version 1.2 of mmdb-server.
mmdb-server is an open source fast API server to lookup IP addresses for their geographic location.
Some minor changes in this release including in the API.

(1/2) This one is in German and currently behind a paywall, but we'll share it anyway:
@ct_Magazin / @heiseonline have taken our #geolocation and #verification tool SPOT for a test drive – and published a long article about it:
It's great to see leading tech journalists take an interest in our work.
The clue that unlocked the geolocation was this post:

Almost 100% it is right here:

Road up to a ski resort, same bend in the river, same trees, same treeline.
Let's geolocate this... A little bit of squinting and I did a search for "Singh Construction", with no matches... but then found an exact logo match to Singh Contracting Group in Colorado Springs. So, we're now talking an accident in Colorado Springs. (Update: Montana!)
