App Showcase: Weather
"The Librem 5 is designed to protect your privacy, and include a privacy-respecting Weather app. When opened this retrieves weather data from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute, and only them."
@Alexmitter @purism it's not super special, but you can read about their data policies here:
https://www.met.no/en/free-meteorological-data
In short they believe in sharing data, use open source when possible, and all in all just offer a great service. And they since they're public and tax funded there's little reason to worry about bad intentions, unless you're generally mistrusting of state employed meteorologists.
That said, it's not that special - it's one of the most commonly used APIs in open source software.
@Alexmitter @purism its more open and covers most of the world not just Norway.
@purism
You guys are doing a great job. I hope my next phone will be a Librem 5.
@purism For now, I don't have Librem phone although I want to protect my digital privacy. Is it possible to use this weather app on Android? 😀
@hans and what if you want a quick access to forecast?
@purism to understand that, what is special about the norvegian service?
