@zudn I find the web editor on openstreetmap.org very usable on desktop. I drop a pin on the map whenever I find an error. A few times a year, I'll go through my map and location history to add or fix things. (trace buildings, add address information, etc).

@zudn @GoEsr
This is one reason why I wrote this appstore script for #SXMO (timebeing, I still also use android). A simple system should be understandable and usable by the average Joe, but everything has some learning curve.

@zudn For many, using #openStreetMaps will be less convenient than its big-tech alternatives. But keep in mind where your true citizenship is. The 'pattern of this world' is to drink from the fountain of Rome. Living 20 years in the past is a (small?) price to pay to free yourself from its (often wicked) influence.

@ozmik @amosbatto

This (long) post is filled with all sorts of info that I missed, like
> PINE64 sells a tempered glass screen protector for $4.99, and a soft TPU case and hard plastic case that both cost $9.99 for the #PinePhone.
Wish I had realized that before cracking mine.

@neauoire once upon a time, I put #plan9 on a raspberry pi and used it a bit (but eventually switched because I couldn't figure out the wifi (I use that pi for displaying my song website on my piano)). Mouse-chording is interesting (I loved using it for search in left), but given how much I use touchscreen devices (pinephone), I don't see it becoming part of my workflow.

@neauoire Love it!
Left (the C version) is one of the reasons I currently use micro instead of nano (it taught me that using the mouse in a text editor is good for productivity). (ssh is part of why I use micro instead of left)

@p @martijnbraam @Moon 'aHR0' seems like a boring way to start a message. If anyone wants to finish the decoding, you can use

(I suspect there's something else going on tho)

@p @martijnbraam @Moon

(So it's not upside down)

@p @martijnbraam @Moon
211214 start code B
121124 a
231113 H
231131 R

(What if it's upside-down?)

I think maybe it was made with a barcode font, maybe the character spacing is wrong

(Each character is 3 black bars and 3 white bars, but it seems like every third white bar is longer than it should be)

@p @martijnbraam @Moon code 128B?

@bart can we get some "pinephone vs librem 5 vs pinephone pro" comparisons?
It's been a while since I've tried plasma mobile; might be nice to know if it's usable or still jerky.

@Jonius Well, #UbuntuTouch's #lomiri runs on mir (a #wayland compositor), which as of v2.5 should support the virtual keyboard protocol extension. So, you would need to enable that for wvkbd, then find some way to open (and close) the keyboard.

@dheadshot @proycon hmm, maybe you're referring to https://todo.sr.ht/~mil/sxmo-tickets/257 an issue with phone number handling that was fixed in the last few months.

@craftyguy @proycon #phosh would be the most plausible secondary platform (wvkbd already shares a lot in common with #squeekboard, and phosh has a 'keyboard open' button (which does dbus things?))
An interested party could probably implement that interface to launch and kill wvkbd instead.

Preparing another patch for the swipe-typing keyboard (#wvkbd on #SXMO on the #pinephone)

Any thoughts on the color choice? #postmarketOS @postmarketOS

@wisemonkey (that awkward moment when I've been using it for close to two months now). Really the visual feedback is a huge help for usability. Still working out a few tweaks/bugs here and there.
