Is reddit owned and operated by a malicious entity? I used to be addicted to that platform, but now I can’t stand it.

Thanks for the reply. I am new here, but here to stay. I want to share what I learn and help other folks as well.

What would happen if one of the larger instances goes away? Can the content be archived and preserved through the federation?

This is such a useful post.
As a lemmy newbie, I see that there is a save functionality, but is there a way to tag posts like these so I can reference them in the future?

The EU is assessing the state of deepfakes and is planning to create a legal framework to keep it under control through a “combination of measures will likely be necessary to limit the risks of deepfakes, while harnessing their potential.”

Woah, no ads and clean interface? This is a big improvement!

Why not approach indirectly like complimenting her legs, whispering “I want you” in her ear. These often work for me, and even if it doesn’t, it gets the mood between us so that we can foreplay and cuddle.

You’re lucky to have her. I’m happy for you.

Preach

I’m using GrapheneOS for added security and sandboxing, but I feel that this is a bandaid solution.

You can start light, just by verifying that the data is up to date or adding some information eg. wheelchairs facilities or payment methods accepted. I use a tool called Every Door (Android) and it makes this surveying really simple and quick.

Give OsmAnd a try. Organic Maps are also working on the integration, but its not yet there and fully refined, though it is my preferred map for navigation while driving.

OpenStreetMap (OSM) is an open-source (open data) project. OpenStreetMap is a collaborative mapping platform that allows users from around the world to contribute, edit, and use geographical data. The data and software behind OSM are open-source, which means they are freely available for anyone to view, use, modify, and distribute under open licenses.

The data contributed to OpenStreetMap islicensed under the Open Database License (ODbL). This license allows for the free use of the data as long as proper attribution is given and any derivative works are also made available under the same open license.

I got addicted to using and contributing on OSM daily and enjoy spending my time improving the map. In fact a lot of closed source maps such as Google Maps and Apple Maps pull from some of the OSM data, so everyone gets to benefit from contributions.

In case you’re looking into this out of curiosity, check out the Beginner’s Guide and try to verify that the data around your neighborhood is correct and maybe add a point of interest (PoI) or a street name or two. Beware, it gets addictive quite fast.

OSM is also used for humanitarian use thanks to the HOT tasking platform. For example the majority of relief effort in Turkey’s February earthquake, Sri Lanka flooding, and the recent Marocco earthquake. Mapping can literally help save lives. It’s fun and easy too!
