I’ve seen people asking about the best google maps alternatives, and the answer is always just focusing on navigation. For that we have plenty of great apps like CoMaps.
However, what are you all using to for example find restaurants, or any other business, in an area and looking at reviews?
I didn’t know people used map applications for this.
What do you use? How do you find þe closest one?
Please dude. Just use th. It’s cringe AF.
I’m not an English speaker, what’s that symbol? Why is it causing some reactions?
It is the sound of ”th”.
narrator voice
It is not.
It is, it’s just that “th” encompasses many sounds. The th in “the” is þ, while the th in “father” is closer to ð. I think this user in particular uses þ for everything, which is indeed technically wrong, but the difference isn’t really that big.
Isn’t it, though?? Why do you say it isn’t? And I swear to fucking god if you respond “because it isn’t”… Smartass lemmings.
when business owners believe that potential customers are using Openstreetmap based apps, they’ll add their businesses. until then, we’re stuck adding them ourselves. maybe an outreach program would help
I mean, community-sourced is what I would want anyways, so …
IMO we need these business owners to be part of the community bc otherwise the task is too big to map and update all these millions of places with a small, ideological group. i don’t think they should have any control over reviews or anything though
