0·8 days agoYes, that’s what I wrote in my first comment in this thread. It seems it recognizes “near” as a keyword to look up things in a map from POI descriptions to tags. I’m sure it’s open source, so we could simply look there, but I don’t know where that exact logic is located.
Most of what you write is right, but not the part where you write it searches only in names and addresses, it does have some support for POIs. If I search for public bookcase near paris, the top three results are https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/12387870803 https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/9569806762 https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/11733421968 none of which have anything like “public bookcase” in their names, they are tagged amenity=public_bookcase though.
However, if I search for “public_bookcase” in openstreetmap.org search bar, I don’t get the result I want. How can define in my research keys and values?
AFAICT, the search feature on openstreetmap.org is meant to be used with human-readable expressions, i.e. “public bookcase” with a space, not underscore.
But I just tested it with various queries for “public bookcase near [city]” and they all gave me plenty of results, both with and without an underscore. Apparently searching for “public_bookcase” with an underscore by itself (without a city) only gives results that are named something like “public bookcase” (which should almost never happen, but that’s a different question).
Ultimately the search feature on openstreetmap.org is unfortunately somewhat limited and if you want more sophisticated ways of searching the database, there are plenty of options available.

Paint: https://www.pinta-project.com/ seems to have Windows builds.
Calculator: https://qalculate.github.io/ is the best I know of.

0·12 days agoDo you only want to geotag, without editing the files any further? If yes, you can do this on the command line with exiftool or exiv2.
If you are also going to edit your photos, then AFAICT darktable preserves all EXIF data, though I am not familiar specifically with the HDR data you refer to. It allows geotagging by dragging on a map.
The same applies to all other app stores, there won’t be any to move to.
5·15 days agoI no longer use IRC; when I did, I used KVIrc near the end, which seems to still be getting releases.
on my work computer (Windows 11), I’m pretty sure this was the default and I didn’t have to configure it to do that? I use this all the time because part of my current job is to send screenshots to people in order to verify that software is working correctly. :D
Shotcut does everything I need and tends to “just work”, better than most others. I think I tried OpenShot once or twice and it didn’t work so well, but don’t remember details.
also several places at which I’ve worked on business-internal software, including my current job
GitLab, I am not sure if their own installation hits all points (depends on what you define as “big tech involvement” maybe), but if you self-host it, certainly.
22·29 days agoOne could have guessed from the image in the OP. KDE 4.2 is not exactly a recent piece of software anymore.
I notice there is no mention of a license, so this is not actually open source.
I think there is a fundamental division between services for following people and services for participating in groups.
You are right that some of it is a UI consideration, but not all of it.
It’s not redundant to boundary data. There are many places where postal addresses don’t use the same place names as the administrative boundaries. Even if this were not so, the point of addr tags is to make it possible to search for full addresses.
Based on what you told us I am pretty sure that person was wrong, frankly bordering on vandalism.
Do you have a link to a source for this?
