Always wanted an ocean-centric map.

Always wanted an ocean-centric map.

I think the above image is the Spilhaus World Ocean map, which I do find very pleasing to look at.

Do you know the name for this type of projection?

[–] three@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Read that little blurb at the top right of the map 😉

Duh... thanks lol

The World, according to fish.

I'd love to see a version of this map with river accesses, but I imagine it would be a cluster fuck to compile and make visually appealing, unless it's an interactive map.

Do flat earther fish talk about the dirt wall 'they' don't want you to know about?

Okay, I wanna know who the three downvotes were from and why? Lol.

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 10 points 3 months ago (3 children)

The who bit is simple :)

The why... Maybe accidental misclick?

[–] WldFyre@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

How do you see that?? Are you a mod or is that something anyone can see?

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 7 points 3 months ago

I run my own instance. Lemmy UI and Jerboa (screenshot) exposes the votes to admins. If I were a developer I'd probably patch it to show to everyone.

maybe the legend? The colour assignment is confusing.

Lol.

Some people just downvote anything

I know the Pacific is huge, but when you see it like that is mind-blowing

I see three horses in this image.

Tell me I'm not the only one.

[–] AMMQP4@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago

You are not alone!

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Took me a minute but I think I finally see it, or at least two of them. First thing I noticed trying to see it though, if you tilt your head to the left, the area around the Bay of Bengal looks like a dinosaur with an underbite spitting at Australia.

[–] Zozano@lemy.lol 3 points 3 months ago

The horses are in colour, not black like the dinosaur.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

This view freaks me out for some reason.

This is a map for whales
