Dev-focused tools that solve generic problems exclusively working with either GitHub or GitLab repos is really saddening. The software development world does not revolve exclusively around these two platforms. It is entirely possible to build most of these awesome tools in platform-agnostic ways. The creators choose not to because it's easier and they don't care about those platforms, even though they end up excluding large swathes of the software development ecosystem.

What's the easiest way to get up and running with a screen reader? :bunthink:

I want to try putting on a blindfold and using exclusively through a screen reader to test its accessibility

I am in a pub which has existed for quite some time, yet unfathomably, doesn’t exist on open street map. Is there a quick and dirty way I can add it to the database? I don’t want to have to survey the land and measure the thickness of walls and such. I just wanna say “hey, there’s a pub here, not empty space!”

@popey I know you've already added it using a different app, but in case it would be useful in the future, I find Organic Maps super convenient for that kind of thing. After logging in to your OSM account, you just long-press somewhere on the map, swipe up like you're expanding that location's details, and tap Edit Place or Add Place.
