6 months ago Oh how lovely of you to say. Happy folks find it fun and useful! Twice now, I've been mapping waterways and com across a really nicely mapped town only to discover that the editor had kindly responded to a bot post month earlier. It's quite a delight. The map is big but not infinite so there's lots of chances for serendipity.
Good news about a retrospective, I'll be giving a lighting talk in June about it and plan to pull stats and collages. Those are planned to get posted onto youtube at some point and I may post more in a blog if things are too tight on time.
I've updated the About bar. Great idea!
Hi there,
I just wanted to say thank you for your work making this. I saw it posted on lemmy here and am so impressed. What a great idea for a bot. What a nice following you have that seem to be taking action each day to map these places. I doubt if you'll ever hear it but I'm sure some of these people wake up one day and boom their place is suddenly mapped (on whatever app) and they're surprised and delighted!
I think it would be cool if you did a 1 year review with before and after pics of every place you posted. Show them all on a little webpage or something. I think that would be a hit!
PS: You should add a little short description and link to website on the sidebar of github so is just a tiny bit easier for people to know what it is.
