You can and you should contribute - Open Street Map (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Today I found out that it's actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.

It's really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

I caught the whole first generation + my favorite Celebi. How's that for an impact?

But are they IV 100? Mine are all IV 96 or better.

I bow before the king! I think I had some shitty <20 IV there as well, but my goal since the beginning was to catch the ones I've been watching in the anime as a kid, didn't much care about other generations (well, I remember a little bit of gen 2 from my youth as well).
