    Even the internet archive is nothing in comparison to the image data used for street view.

    honest curiosity, don’t want to flame war: do you have numbers for that?

    stitching is no longer a requirement because of 360° cameras, is it? it could also be made on the client side if really needed. if people can use josm to contribute to osm, they can use some other software for stitching?!

    have you seen that the internet archive has also quite high res books scans and videos?

    if your aiming for covering every small street of the whole world tomorrow, you are right: it won’t work. but nothing would stop to start with a single city or a region?

    lets agree to disagree :-)




  • how would you federate? it comes natural for lemmy to have each community on a seperate server, but how would you do this for a project like dmoz?

    i don’t think it would be a good idea that one server could own “art” for example, and no one else could contribute. and on the other side it would not be a good idea if everyone could add sites for “art” as then it’s just a federated wiki? you still would have to fight spam? do all entries in “art” have the same priority? or should there be some voting, or verifying from other instances maybe? but then rough instances could vote for each other?!

    how big is the spam problem on lemmy?
