I am Lattrommi. Yes, that one. You’ve never heard of me? I’m not surprised. It is often said that anything you put on the internet will live there forever. It becomes immortal. I do everything backwards and wrong. I do not live forever, I am always dying. ¿|√∞²|?
What is not politically agnostic? I’m American and the list matches my own almost.
Only differences are that I am stuck with Android because Verizon, I have Element but no connections on it, firefox instead of librewolf (bc lazy), arch-based instead of arch and I don’t use/need immich and home assistant.
I have an OSM account and even resolved a note or two. I’ve cleared every SC quest within a mile+ from my apartment and for the most part things look accurate. There are a couple fixes that need done but I also have severe ADHD. I absolutely WILL mess things up in OSM. That’s why Street Complete is perfect for me, it removes all possibility of me making catastrophic changes erroneously.
For example, a library near me was torn down and a new one was built across the street from where it was. The old ones location is the new ones parking lot and the new one is where a business used to be. The road and sidewalks around them were also redone in a slightly different layout. I looked into correcting this and quickly learned I’m not capable of fixing it in OSM. I could try. However if it can’t be done in about 45 seconds, I wont finish what I start. I left a note instead, so hopefully someone with that capability does and I can verify it with SC if that ever happens.
It isn’t FLOSS and I think it uses and adds to the aggregated anonymized tracking data from Google. I could be wrong. The developers I feel try too hard to push a mystical connection with the app. Still, it certainly has taken me to amazing places I never knew existed, that are right by where I live. It doesn’t show third party ads but can be annoying with the system it uses to try and sell tokens for the app to be profitable for the devs. That might just be me being cheap though. I can’t afford to spend money on an app at this time so having a full page ad appear every third journey gets old real quick. I really can’t complain though, for as much as I have used it, for free, it has provided a lot of entertainment and adventure.
My car died and I’m not currently employed due to disability so I’ve got nothing better to do than to walk around. I combine Street Complete with Randonautica to find new places to go. I’m running out of places with quests near where I live (Dayton, Ohio), it is causing me to exercise more. https://i.imgur.com/w3F0wtw.png
I’m sure they mean an elegant dinner party to honor them and not eating your extended family as a light snack before bedtime.
