Yeah, and Wikipedia, linux,... have become important as well, without big corpo

This article is about global electricity production, not all energy combined. This is an important nuance, as much energy consumption uses fossil fuels directly, namely cars, many (older) house or industrial processes. Only a small fraction of this is electricity, and in the grander scheme, the "renewable" part is only a fraction: https://ourworldindata.org/energy-production-consumption.

So, while this is a step in the good direction, it is only a very small one.

@BlackLaZoR@BlackLaZoR@kbin.run would you mind updating the title to reflect this?

How can we make sure their privacy claims about search aren't bullshit?

(I still trust them though, just pointing out it is an equivalent problem)

Also a great option, but closed source

!openstreetmap@lemmy.ml - but that's also because I helped to get it going during the first reddit-waves ;)

[-] pietervdvn@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

There is a (somewhat) active community here too: !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml

[-] pietervdvn@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Some shameless advertising: there is an OpenStreetMap-community on lemmy: !openstreema0@lemmy.ml

[-] pietervdvn@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Hijacking the thread:

You are all welcome on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml to discuss anyting OpenStreetMap-related

Also have a look to https://mapcomplete.osm.be - this one works on mobile and desktop and has many thematic maps (e.g. one for shops, one for cycling stuff, one for toilets) and you can improve the data there as well + add images.

Sorry, but HERE-maps does not use OSM data. They list their sources here: https://legal.here.com/en-gb/terms/general-content-supplier-terms-and-notices

Hi! Wrong sub? No worries, our ~~subreddit~~community (!openstreetmap@lemmy.ml) is right here as well!

Did you also know that Apple Maps and Bing Maps use OSM data too in some areas, for some types of categories? Bing even has cloned an OSM-editing program.

Furthermore, you can use https://mapcomplete.osm.be to add shops or other POI. (Obligatory shill as I'm the main dev of that one ;) )
