I first learned of Street-Complete here and I really like it.
It's satisfying to walk around, complete little tasks, and get prizes, scratching a similar itch to Pokemon Go.
Stuck waiting for someone? Add opening hours for a few local businesses.
Have a long walk ahead of you? See if you can add/check house addresses as fast as you can walk.
Want to walk off a few beers before heading home? Complete some tasks in the bar street.
Its a very constructive way to "be right" on the internet.
@inbeesee @openstreetmap It does have a team mode, but I think that's just a transient thing.
@InsertUser @inbeesee the team mode just makes sure 2 people don't gets asked the same thing. Otherwise it's wasted work
Would be cool to expand it! Is it open sourced work?
@inbeesee I'm pretty sure all of Street complete is open source. The team mode is a very clever hack, where each person gets a different number and it's just showing people different quests
Interesting.... If you tracked groups by "different quest number" you could potentially group them that way... Even more hacky lol
