The freedom to study the source code

Rules:

Please keep on topic
Follow the Lemmy.zip rules
No memes
No "circle jerking" or inflammatory posts
No discussion of illegal content

Please report anything you believe to violate the rules and be sure to include rhetoric on why you think it should be removed.

If you would like to contest mod actions please DM me with your rational as to why you feel that the relivant mod action should be reversed. Remember to use rhetoric and to site any relevant sources. You will only get one chance to argue your point and continued harassment will result in a ban.

Overall this community is pretty laid back and none if the things list above normally are an issue.

The maintainer refuses to change the goofy 3d direction pointer per requests.

I’ll wait til they fix that.

I don't really know what your talking about but I think almost all mapping applications have a pointer to show you your current location.

Anyway the important thing is to use free software. If you have a alternative that you like better you should post it in this community.
