I’m launching #QwastTube: a #PeerTube‑based, privacy‑friendly alternative to my YouTube channel.
If you care about digital sovereignty and open‑source GIS, this is for you.
I’m still importing videos, but it’s already live:

YouTube will stay in sync for now, but I hope you’ll join me on the fediverse.

I build a quick&dirty app that shows a status update with coordinates and one photo on a map.
First thing people say is: "aren't there apps for this?"
Of course.
"So why make it?"
Because hands-on creation gives me a deeper understanding of development and UI/UX.
It’s like climbing a mountain versus taking the lift. The view is the same at the top, but the experience is a thousand times richer when you go up on foot.
Today, I chose experience.
A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020.
It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛
Unlike a lot of places in tech, my company, Set Studio/Piccalilli has no outside funding. Bootstrapped is what the LinkedIn people say, I think. It’s been a hard year this year. A very hard year. I think a naive person would blame it all on the seemingly industry-wide attitude of “AI can just do this […]

A simple editor for quickly scaffolding maplibre stylejsons.
My real #QGIS boss fight: finding which button a newly installed plugin sneaks into the UI.
It's like playing a 'memory' or 'find the differences' game.
Topic #1: Addresses
People can place an order for Christmas cards on https://jannekeschot.nl. Orders need to be shipped, and shipping requires an address.
I have connected the address input field to the Dutch public location service. It's an API with suggest and lookup endpoints. I use those to suggest addresses as the user types, and to get a valid address object with coordinates.
I really like this approach as it simplifies the process of acquiring a valid address for me, and the user
I'm helping my partner raise money for Serious Request. The annual event in The Netherlands where radio DJs lock themselves in a glass house for a week to raise funds for a good cause.
My partner has designed Christmas cards and is selling them online.
I stepped in to help with the IT, website, order automation and data viz I had no idea how much fun it would be.
I’ll share some behind-the-scenes insights into the digital side of things: how small tech tweaks can make a big impact
Really impressive project shared at #sotmeu2025 from Jochen Topf. Vizualizualization of ALL data in OSM. For low zoom levels it uses raster tiles (generated in the database with an obscure `postgis_raster` extension).

Uses #PostGIS with a small server written in Go. MapLibre on frontend.
