Hmm I tried the shortbread layer and while it looks nice it still pixelates when zooming in until it loads the new zoom level


I guess you're right. I see the same on my desktop Firefox on Linux. But on my Android phone it's pretty smooth.


It seems to just not work in Firefox for me, it's the same for me on FF Android but in Chrome it's beautiful! Constant text size while zooming and it's super smooth.

Edit: It also weirdly doesn't work on Chrome on Linux for me either, only Chrome on android. Oh well, hopefully they can bring support everywhere eventually.


> If such a change happens in the future, they can fork then...

Did such a change not already happen with the addition of Kayak affiliate links without any community consultation? It seems to me that there has already been enough to justify a fork.

Not to mention, there was a promise of electing and changing boardmembers which has never happened, and hiding the use of OrganicMaps project donations for personal vacations as alleged by the initial open letter.

Were those donations intended to support the core developers generally? Or were they specifically intended to pay for servers, equipment, etc.?

If it’s the former, a vacation seems like a totally legitimate use. If the latter, not so much.

Imo hiding that the funds were used even in a legitimate case makes it improper. If it was intended to be paid as a salary then they should have disclosed that $x were paid out as a salary. As I understand it, the only reason we know that the funds left the project was because one of the founders revealed the use of funds by the other founders, not through a planned, transparent, or regular process. In other words, the revelation that funds were being used seemed to be an anomaly as opposed to a regular practice.

The original open letter states essentially as much: "It's fine for developers to be reimbursed for their hard work, but it should be done in a fair, transparent and accountable way."


Not some of the effects heavy custom beatsaber maps. Also vivify hasn't been ported to quest beatsaber afaik so they're still missing out on all the crazy new maps with custom unity assets and environments.


Also check out briefsky. Like merrysky it supports the pirate weather API but it's open source / self hostable (at least I don't see any link to merrysky's source) and it supports several other weather APIs as well. I found switching it to the tomorrow.io API was much more accurate for beach weather.


I've been using briefsky which is similar to merrysky but open source. Both use pirate weather which is a recreation of the dark sky API. It's not as accurate (and I sometimes also switch briefsky to the tomorrow.io API) but it gives me that familiar UI and fills the role well enough for now.


It seems the free version only let me upload 2 images before it told me to come back the next day, so there's one thing.


Revolt's UI looks super nice, I just wish it was connected to Matrix on the backend so I could use it with all the communities I participate in on matrix.


I hope they add that ability, I'm pretty fed up with onlyoffice and nextcloud office (collabora) frequently breaking and having terribly buggy/laggy UIs.


This happens to be one of the pipe dream roadmap milestones for bitmagnet: https://bitmagnet.io/#pipe-dream-features

I used to use magnetico and wanted to make something that would use crawled info hashes to fetch the metadata and retrieve the file listing, then search a folder for any matching files. You'd probably want to pre-hash everything in the folder and cache the hashes.

I hope bitmagnet gets that ability, it would be super cool
