The 2022 Matrix Holiday Update is here - looking back on all the news from the Matrix core team in 2022, both good & bad, and hoping for a better 2023. Happy holidays, and thanks for flying Matrix. https://matrix.org/blog/2022/12/25/the-matrix-holiday-update-2022 ☃️
@matrix reading this was so nice.
I'm sad to learn Neil left, I hope the project won't suffer.
About location sharing: have you considered about the privacy issue of downloading tiles? This might disclose your location. I know there was a messenger that planned using #peermaps https://peermaps.org/ to mitigate that.
For the funding we are doing our part (with @copiepublique) but have you considered a progress bar? If crowdfunding platform use this pattern, it may work (gamification?)
@lutindiscret @copiepublique yup, we need to sort out a progress bar - and thanks :) for location share privacy; your client can use whatever maptile server it likes (optionally using one recommended by your server).
