would be good if the people running the OSM twitter account started “bringing it up to current marketing standards”

[OpenStreetMap @openstreetmap]

We're so pleased about our partnership with Sovereign Tech Fund. Their investment will help update #OpenStreetMap’s codebase, bringing it up to current software standards, and improve the contribution process through better documentation and testing. (1/2)

Geospatial thought leaders are moving to @OvertureMaps because @OpenStreetMap hasn't been updated in two years https://t.co/K7yzEcseAw

@mouthofmorrison I added GCPs to my yard when I realized this. For the future 🫡

[Anonymaps @Anonymaps]

Just as well CloudMade is the only example ever of a map services company founded as an OSM shop which then pivoted to automotive in a failed attempt to chase the big dollars

[Anonymaps @Anonymaps]

Finally CloudMade shareholders get a return!

what3words "only" lost £31.5m last year, vs £43.3m the year before. profit is just around the corner! https://t.co/v737sNUkGm

[Anonymaps @Anonymaps]

looks like what3words is raising money once again, because the £100m they've raised so far isn't enough to fund a glorified lookup table. I guess "crowdfunding every year" is kind of a business model? https://t.co/KlPs1ePIpj

Good news! Mapbox GL JS is open source again! https://t.co/k7AnMPDAcr

[Anonymaps @Anonymaps]

this is not necessarily a bad thing but "2022 design trends" look very much like "Google Maps circa 2016"
