You’re all welcome in !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml to discuss antying OSM-related.

The namechange of the Gulf has been discussed on our forum; how to deal with this has been decided in consensus.

And, obligated self-promo: if you want to start contributing to OSM, you can try https://mapcomplete.org/ (which is someting else then the StreetComplete app, but that one is nice too!)

TBH, I assisted with some linux installs and setting up a dual boot was troublesome. Installing a clean install worked easier!

If you have an old, spare laptop around, I recommend trying linux first with that laptop before making the plunge.

When you make a phone call, the antenna’s are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus “pretend” that it is still connected.
