@ArrogantHair I am one of them! Iโ€™m excited to see how this works. Iโ€™ve been in twitter forever but Iโ€™m excited about the open source nature.

I also have some pinned to my profile.

If you are web browser, make sure to go to preferences/settings and switch to advanced mode to get a Tweetdeck like UI.

Android - use Tusky app instead of default Mastodon (its out of date)
iPhone use Metatext app.

Otherwise follow the tips that everyone keeps posting.

I am a geospatial full stack. So if you ever need web mapping tips I am here.
@ArrogantHair @oliviergoulet maybe Iโ€™m getting old but I have no idea what geospatial web means ๐Ÿ˜‚
@Derekmajor @oliviergoulet
Google Maps, the little maps on store websites that show their location. Those are the most popular things.
@ArrogantHair @oliviergoulet ok I get google maps, displaying on websitesโ€ฆetc. Iโ€™ve done that many times. Do you do API work with or custom implementations instead of just embedded code?

@Derekmajor @oliviergoulet

Currently building the frameworks for municipalities to link all their work order systems to talk with payroll/accounting and then linking to infrastructure. So field workers have an app with a map showing a hydrant to be repaired - they click to say I did 2 hours of work. Management has a dashboard with showing map of asset replacement/repair status, also showing they are within budget.

But I have also build routing delivery apps for a company that does flower delivery.

All cases it is largely API, but with lots of development for UI and backend.
