Free and OpenStreetMap @osm_foss@en.osm.town

Interesting report on the use of Free and Open Source Software #FOSS by the #OpenStreetMap Foundation #OSMF: https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/xamanu/diary/395615.

And #kudos to @rory for leading the pack on #Mastodon with the #OSM-oriented https://en.osm.town instance!

What hosted or self-hosted alternatives would you suggest they use ?

This masto instance was mentioned & recommended by the #OSMF's FOSS Policy Ctte!

#OpenStreetMap #OSM

The #OpenStreetMap Foundation is running a survey (in 13 languages!) to find out more about the #OSM community. It should only take a few minutes, and we'd greatly appreciate as many responses as possible., 🙂 (pls boost)

You can now join the #OpenStreetMap Foundation #OSMF as a voting member under the new Active Contributor Program, provided you achieve significant contribution, like 42 days of mapping over the last year or some other forms of contribution to the community (like organizing events, building software, etc.).
