I want this place to be active, so I post things that might be relevant to others. And the little dopamine boost if I notice that something I posted received some upvotes is nice as well.
Everytime I think there’s nothing going on here, I post something myself. Or if the posts I see are mostly negative, I’ll post something positive. Be the change you want to see.
Keep in mind, too, that you can add as much or as little data as you want. If you want to map the species name of every tree, feel free; if you want to trace over a building and just call it a “building” with no other details, that’s helpful too. So don’t get intimidated; it’s about what you can do, not what you can’t.
Thanks for this! I wanted to add a public ping pong table a couple weeks ago but got overwhelmed by all the data fields in Vespucci. I didn’t want to submit an incomplete dataset, but couldn’t figure out which additional fields are needed. Next time I’ll just submit it.

Why don’t you do it?
Exactly. Fork it, make GoFed, extend the Fediverse. That’s how open source works.
Exciting thought
Before most trolling became toxic, there was the variant of light trolling which was nice and very fun. I remember one person presenting a talk at a hacker conference about trolling, but all they did was talking about trolling as in fishing… for the whole talk. It was a nice way to waste everyone’s time.
I’m using it to track what books I’ve read and to discover new books to read by following others. But you can also create read later lists, write and read reviews, rate books, comment on others reviews or status updates. Also, every time a book isn’t available on Bookwyrm I enjoy to enter the metadata and make it available for everyone.
I created a Mastodon account in 2022 when Musk took over Twitter, but wasn’t really active there. When Reddit closed down their API in 2023 I started using Lemmy daily. Now I’m on Mastodon, Lemmy, PieFed, PeerTube, Bookwyrm and more. Love the fediverse!
It’s delicious

Bought a refurbished Thinkpad T480s a year ago. It got me back into Linux on the desktop which brought a lot of joy into my computing life.
Meme good. Backwards it read I.
What is it about? I don’t know the reddit sub
