sad when local restaurant sites die an awkward cert error then JS error death
#
[tantek]
one of my side hobby want projects is to make a local community run/edited restaurant wiki-like site, like an intersection of Nextdoor & Yelp, with local moderators, and keep the info global read-only obviously so folks visiting can use it
#
[tantek]
Foursquare could have solved that problem if they wanted to, they already have "superusers" to help edit things
#
[tantek]
if they added things like menus etc.
#
[tantek]
In the short term, I often take a photos of menus of restaurants I visit when it seems like they've updated their menu

I signed up as a Google Local Guide specifically so I could fix search results for local restaurants (who if they have a web link usually have a Facebook one) by adding photos and fixing opening times

I didn't sign up as a Guide, but I did report a coffee shop as closed on Google Maps, with photos as proof

What is choice?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "choice" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "choice is ____", a sentence describing the term)

[snarfed] - do you have an updated report url showing who much content Bridgy is sending to the Fediverse? Interested in watching that over time.

Best article ever.

[snarfed]
[timothy_chambe] latest Bridgy stats are from last June, https://snarfed.org/2022-06-05_bridgy-stats-update-7 . We've definitely seen an uptick in Mastodon recently though!
