I use maps for navigation (mostly OsmAnd) and improve OpenStreetMap with my self-made website (https://mapcomplete.org)

Correct. Naming of ubuntu is always . of release. The LTS'es are supported for four years, so when 24.04 is released, the 20.04 will be EOL

!openstreetmap@lemmy.ml - but that's also because I helped to get it going during the first reddit-waves ;)

Well, in a way, they do provide accurate geolocalisation for indoor environments based on wifi networks. And it is right that having internet/bluethooth access also (more or less) reveals your location; but that doesn't make it ethical.

Not at the moment. It takes a lot of mapping and a lot of work to get this correct.

You can however try to create your own routeplanner using OsmAnd, but you'll need to be familiar with OsmAnd, XML, some programming and OpenStreetMap. (I created the Ski routeplanner a few years back this way)

You forgot "Use AI"

Do you feel like adding them into OpenStreetMap? If so, https://mapcomplete.org/surveillance makes it easy for you.

Yes. I'm mostly developing a website, and testing on another browser is necessary every now and then. But that is my only use reason.

My main browser used to be firefox till tw9 weeks qgo, but it started to be buggy so it's LibreWolf now.

I'm using Fennec BTW
