OpenStreetMap data is free, we only ask that you tell people about us in exchange¹.

Some site use OSM without attribution, and hotlink to OSMF tile servers. 😭 Our data is free, but our servers cost time & money. 🖥 It's now even easier for you to report naughty sites like that. 📝 They can (eventually) be blocked from freeloading. We hope this will increase visibility of OSM! 👍 🎉

Read more: https://github.com/openstreetmap/tile-attribution/blob/main/README.md

¹ to simplify the OSM licence req's.

Microsoft's Copilot button is a shining example of the form factor trap.

Who remembers when Siri came out and voice assistants were the future of computing? Samsung built a physical Bixby key into their phones (and went through massive pains to prevent users from disabling it). Microsoft had a dedicated Cortana button ship pinned to Windows 8's dock. Google Assistant was a default Android homescreen.

@scottjenson @preya @freelock @simulo @PavelASamsonov I'd like to know, too 😃 @jancborchardt probably would also want to know.

I use Nextcloud everyday (work/personal), all the core apps. It's simple and functional. Can it be improved? Everything can be improved. But the only way it can be improved is if people report issues on Github, so the team is aware, can triage, and see if it's an actual problem or a niche need of one user. If skills permit, contribute fixes with PRs. It's open source.

Every 6 months or so, I ask for examples of projects with great design. Products like @penpot @taiga @elementary and Audacity are just a few that come to mind.

I'm particularly interested in small to mid size projects with great . (as that's harder to pull off) Anything people can suggest?

@scottjenson maybe Nextcloud. Not sure if that's too big of a project.

is by far the best browser on desktop. Let me be clear, I am not saying that because I am ideologically opposed to using Google products. I use YouTube and Google Workspaces. Chrome genuinely has nothing to offer over Firefox. If your website doesn't work in Firefox then I'm not using your website.

@Gargron Sounds like you need Nextcloud to replace Google Workspace 😀

If your app is sending out emails, make sure you set up a DMARC record to safeguard against spoofing.

You can use a free tool to monitor DMARC reports. You'll be surprised 🤯
