Hello,
I’m Ben and my profile page reminds me I’ve been on Lemmy since the early days back in 2019 (and I need external memory, because my internal one regularly fails, as Pieter explained… 😂).
I figured back then OpenStreetMap deserved its discussion corner on Lemmy, so I went on. And there was activity but rather quiet with mainly news posts and no real discussion threads.
Meanwhile, a lot happened to Lemmy, the Fediverse, and the outside, so we’re good for more activity on here, and that’s excellent news!
I can’t really make the time to map a lot in the last years, but I keep myself interested in mapping and in the OSM ecosystem at large, so all things OpenStreetMap usually catch my interest and are open to discuss.
As a mod, I still have to discover what the duty will really impose, but I’m positive we’ll make it a nice place all together. 🎉
