Maps shouldn’t be ruled by the patriarchy—so let’s take them back.

From colonial borders to corporate-controlled GPS, #maps have always been tools of power. #OpenStreerMap is different: open, feminist, and built by the people.

This #IWD2026, #women it's your streets, your stories, your map.

@openstreetmap osm is better at showing bike paths and walkways than many other maps, but it is still very much defaulting to car infrastructure. that's not very feminist if you ask me.

at least make a layer that renders any car infra as obstacles instead of routes. (yea, cyclosm is there, but it's not what i'm asking now)

@Stoori @openstreetmap even openrailwaymaps has the big streets like the german "autobahn" rendered more prominently than the train routes. :/
