A good alternative could be #142
Seeing as location is currently missing, this has become more important. A possible crutch for this is #106.
Could we keep one issue for this open only, to keep the discussion in one place? So either close https://github.com/benawad/vsinder/issues/142 or this one as a dupe?
Dear @benawad and Vsinder contributors,
Ben in his latest video pointed out that google places costs could be too high to use it. What about change google maps to osm? OSMNames Nominatim
The downside of these, that you can not overwhelm their API, so the Vsinder should have its own instance. According to OSMNames documentation:
So basically it needs a ~30-50Gb container. (The whole world's data file is downloadable about 1.4 Gb)
With this method, there isn't any extra cost, only network traffic if a cloud provider hosts it.
What are your thoughts?
