Its not about contributing to the map data. There’s quite few quality issues with organic maps, from small things in the UI to how it calculates the navigation from A to B. I want to like organic maps, but its still far from usable for me. I do however regularly contribute to OSM - mainly thanks to streetcomplete.

What if the angle would be that you understand the underlying needs and feelings that are being expressed as support for Nazism?

I didn’t know about öffi, thought it would only cover Germany but it supports much more countries. Thanks for the tip!

Some are forced to use windows due to workplace requirements or software only running on windows. I run linux everywhere I can, but don’t always have the choice.

Have you tried a low-code database, such as nocodb? I tried satisfy my need for structures data that way and it works for simple usecases. There are formulas too, but they (like spreadsheets) require some knowledge to set up.

There is at least plugins that enables sync by alternative ways. They’re not as elegant, but work.

Since everything, including settings, is stored in the same root folder as the notes - you can sync your settings along your notes through other tools too.

I used Joplin extensively for ~2 years, but I was constantly put off by the desktop applications UI and how my notes was stored in SQLite. The move to obsidian felt natural and I felt more in ownership over my files in their existing structure. Granted, obsidian is closed source and could go rogue, but when that happens, I am prepared to jump ship without too much pain.

I was a pocketcast user for years, switched to antennapod a few months ago. Here’s what’s bothering me:

• Antennapod has a weird separation between new episodes (inbox) and what you’re listening to now (queue). PC has that abstracted away where you only have to check one place for your podcasts.
• There is no simple service to sync your subscriptions and listen progress. Gpoddersync is basically abandoned and the protocol lacks features. Hopefully this will change with openpodcastAPI, but they haven’t managed to secure funding yet.
• I’ve been spoilt by having a server doing the heavy lifting of refreshing my podcasts. It’s a minor annoyance that I need to wait approx. 1.5 second per feed to refresh. It’s just the way it is.

There are also things that antennapod does better:

• chapters actually works in AP.
• episode pictures also works in AP, PC only showed the static image of the feed.
• search is just as good as PC.
• its FOSS and hopefully resistant to enshittification (unless all producers go into a closed ecosystem like Spotify tried with their recent purchases of pod-studios).

Best of luck from another pod-nerd.
