@dansup @pixelfed Heck yes!🎉 A photo map has been at the top of my Pixelfed wishlist! Can’t wait to see these pizzas mapped: https://pixelfed.social/NickSherman I am very curious though: What data is used to place the items on the map? Will you finally start using geotag metadata from uploads? And/or allow location to be set with specific coordinates? The current situation for assigning vague/arbitrary/ambiguous place names has left me wanting for more, for several reasons. 6 comments
 @nicksherman @pixelfed Yes! Also it will be editable from the web/official app and we’ll have an API for this so you can programmatically access your geojson data and public ones too! One of my goals is to make it easy to mass assign locations to posts so you can easily organize them, with an added privacy visibility option to limit who you share it with, allowing you to keep the location data private and only visible to you on specific posts! Lots of geolocation improvements soon @nicksherman @pixelfed Sounds good, will reach out when its shipped! I appreciate your feedback, and tbh its crucial to feature development. Pixelfed is people powered, and it's quite unique to have a platform like ours that prioritizes user feedback to this degree I can't wait for your feedback once we ship this, there are so many possibilities with a feature like this, for example, being able to see Nearby Posts could bring a whole new dimension, locality!! Let's keep in touch 😁 @dansup @pixelfed I remember many years ago when Instagram still had a photo map feature, it was a great way to find cool stuff nearby (people told me they looked at my photo map all the time to find good pizza). I appreciate your openness to feedback, thanks for doing so much to make the Fediverse even better. |

@nicksherman @pixelfed You will be able to define precise geojson data or it can be read from the images!
