My pleasure! Yes I have osm2gmaps but sadly it doesnt work properly for me when converting gmaps to osm. In those cases it simply creates a link with the coords 0, 0. In reverse however its quite useful, so I dont think there is a need to implement osm2gmaps conversion on my page
Unfortunately osm2gmaps doesnt correctly convert gmaps links to osm links, at least for me. It simply makes a link with the coordinates being 0, 0. As for Geoshare Im not aware of it
Ok, this is super interesting and a bit of a weird coincidence, because on the page you linked it mentions that they are also a community of the blind and it is really important to me to have my page be accessible to visually impaired people, and I already made some steps into making it screen-reader compatible. I still need feedback from them though because not being blind myself I cant be sure if what I used to test the screen-reading is actually what the blind community uses, nor if it would actually be useful for them!
Do they offer hosting and ssh access? If so, how can I go about setting all that up?
Edit: Looking at their donations page it seems that they may be partly linked to the USA which I want to avoid:
HOW DO I DONATE?
You can send cash (USD, YEN or EUR), cheque or a money order to:
SDF Public Access UNIX System
PO Box 17355
Seattle WA 98127
Even though their server is in Germany if they have any relation to the USA its a shame.
Yea that would be awesome! Let me get this version up and running, get some feedback for it, particularly from the visually impaired community (I did my best to make it screen-reader compatible but as I'm not visually impaired myself I'm not sure if the tools I set up for testing are the standards, or if what I have currently is even useful to visually impaired people) and then I can for sure work on expanding it!
Thanks. Hetzer seems like its got a good deal (1.76 euro / month max for the lowest tier which should be way more than enough for what I want to do) but when I looked at the scaleway price page I was greeted with several sections like bare metal and compute. Which one should I be looking for to just host a simple webpage? Also, having done a little more research into hosting, I guess I will be going with nginx and gunicorn (correct me please if this is overkill) so I guess having ssh access to the server is necessary. I've got linux experience so thats not a learning curve for me at all.
Edit: Also for hetzer, looking at their most basic tier in more detail, they have this following feature listed:
Symantec Basic SSL Certificate, duration 1 year
You can equip yourself with a free basic SSL certificate simply by going to the "SSL Manager" menu tab in your account on the konsoleH user interface.
The offer only stands if Symantec can supply a free certificate for the domain.
Even though I'm not actually reading any sensitive user data or storing anything, I think having https will inspire confidence and is just generally better to have than not, so how can I make sure that my domain is elligible for the free certificate?
I got around this on my device by adding osmand.net as supported links for OsmAnd to open. That way I guess if the app is installed it will open in the app, otherwise open it in the browser. Yes, its a manual step but for now I think its best. Im almost done with my tool also, keep an eye out for when I make a new post with the link ;)
I think I made some progress using osmand.net links, which is what is copied to my clipboard when I try to share a location from OsmAnd then select Copy. Ill edit my OP with what I found
Why use bottles rather than lutris? Whats their difference? Im asking because the one time I tried using bottles I dont think I managed to get it to work with whatever it was I was trying to install.
Ive never heard of portproton, but it looks like it does essentially the same thing as if you install through the steam client as a non-steam game using proton (?). If thats the case, why use it over any of the other options?
You will probably need a compositor. In this case it would do what it sais on the tin - "composite" (add up) the alacritty window with whatever is behind it.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I wouldn't be aware of it otherwise. For what its worth, I left my ideas as feedback there.
Also, I would just like to point out that before lemmy (and subscribing to various EU communities) I was not at all active in voicing my opinion about such things as I didn't have any idea that it was even possible/how to do it. Lemmy as a whole has helped me become more active in this regard :D
This seems like an easy implementation, and I can skip the variable and just directly check the timestamp from the script i guess. My question is, if I install something, say yay -S a_single_package does that also update the timestamp of the core.db file?
Thats good to know! Thanks ill checl it out
