User reports Google Maps proposed a sponsored detour to a trip
  • I see your point. I wanted to rely what someone else thought was interesting to share.

    I've been tuning the title as other people here suggested improvements to it.

    Apart from that, I didn't see the advert/proposed alternative route nor put the ad in there, so I never will be able to reflect the absolute truth. However, echoing this other person experience might lead to others being aware of the possibility. I'd be interested to know if someone else sees something similar.

  • Yeah, I've seen this sometimes, which lead me to create a osm account and improve coverage around my zone.

    OSM is a collaborative effort done by volunteers, so it might not be perfect in some places.

  • Might be. It's indeed hard to tell by the picture, but the user seems to knows the place so I don't know. What seems about right is the title is misleading so I'm going to change it.

    Attached: 1 image Bueno, pues necesito alternativas a Google maps, porque acabo de decidir hace unos segundos dejar de usarlo después de que me saliera un trayecto con un desvío completamente innecesario que mete dos minutos más porque pasa cerca de una gasolinera que ha patrocinado ese trayecto

    Original toot in Spanish says: "OK, so I need some alternatives to Google Maps, because I just decided seconds ago to stop using it after I got proposed a trip with a completely unnecessary detour which adds two extra minutes just because it pass by a gas station that sponsors this trip."

  • Maybe at the time you most need it, you'd want it to be as readily as possible. May I suggest a thin plastic layer to open the circuit rather than having the batteries out?

    Kodi Jellyfin plugin doesn't pick up new content without a restart
  • I've found myself in a similar situation. I thought it was due to jellyfin being behind a nginx reverse proxy, so I followed the docs in order to allow websockets to work, but either I did it wrong or the issue is something else. I'll keep an eye on the post just in case someone knows the solution :)

    Hi everyone! I'm testing maloja as self hosted scrobble in companion with navidrome. So far, so good! The only thing I couldn't get working is proper redirect for images to be shown in the UI. I have it at domain.com/maloja but that's no supported, so I had to add some rewrites as described in one of the issues.

    I'd like to hear from you if you're using it as well. Cheers!

    I'm giving it a try after failing to set something simple for a book collection (mostly epub). Interested in knowing other people take on this tool.
