  1. Just had a thought thingy:

    App-tabs.

    When people have a website and users would like to have it as an app, you can set a link on your mobile desktop, which opens a stand-alone browser tab, with the website in it, acting as an App.

    This would seperate it from the browser, you can clear cache, set priveliges etc only for that App-tab AND corporations can't take (most of) the data through the OS.

  6. Quick question

    How would you prefer Lokjo offers GPS?

    a - Activate automatically (if needed, ask permission) when opening the map

    b - Let you activate it when you want (if you know it exists)

  8. Recently stumbled about #Mapcarta

    mapcarta.com

    Another project (like cartes.app/ and @lokjo ) building on excellent #OpenStreetmap data.

    While I like Cartes for planning routes, Mapcarta is very good to get an overview and interesting things in a place / area since it integrates #Wikimedia / #Wikidata data quite nicely.

  12. Testing is always exciting.

    With adding market-sellers to the maps I hope to support them for example on days like this, where Berlin is scheduled for 41°c.

    People will stay in, but can say 'hey, let's see if they have a website where we can order'.

    Should be finished soon, will update then.

  14. @lokjo Thanks for building #Lokjo! 👏

    Two practical questions:

    1. When I look for regular / typical local grocery shop - what icon should I click? When I chose "Groceries" in the main menu, there are several options (such as "street market", "supermarket", "night shop" etc.) but there is not something like "regular local grocery". I mean a local convenience shop where you can buy all basic food. I do not see such option. And this is actually the most important one.

    2. Do you plan to add other languages? In Poland, a typical person would like to use Polish, not one of five languages provided. I would like to recommend lokjo to my family and friends but I know that they would not use a website in English.

  16. More and more European local shops are closing because europeans still use US google (maps), and they won't favor local shops.

    We need more and more people who go shop at locals, and that's exactly why I build Lokjo, the map which filters corporations and chains from the category search.

    Support the european economy, support locals. Use our map. 😊

  21. Donations are what keeps the european Lokjo map running, and supports my extra working hours on the project.

    If you open an account on Liberapay (takes 2 minutes) you can also donate with Bank transfer. Otherwise card or paypal are good too.

    (still working on finding an option for Wero, Blik and other european transfers, hope to update soon!)

  23. Today is #diday ! Which means switch your corporate services to a non-corporate service. Awesome.

    For the european newcomers, if you want to know which country you financially support when using online services, we have a nifty little list/test here, quick and easy

    Give it a share if you like, it's all about awareness! 😊

  27. On the Lokjo map, when clicking the blue Quick button, there's about 60+ different categories for local shops to search for your needs.

    There's more to find through the regular search.

    lokjo.com

    I'm working on a fix for some missing ones, which should be done in the next weeks.

    If anything isn't there, just let me know.

    p.s. Lokjo comes in english, spanish, french, dutch and german language.

  29. Lokjo is not just 'a map', it's a solution to many problems.

    It helps you find non-corporate locations, so your money doesn't end up in things like lobbying, political bubbles, forced labour, profit-wars, polution, and way more.

    It's a nifty little map, with big intentions. 😊

  31. The core of Lokjo is to help you find all non-corporate places near you, but you can also use it to find single shops, share a location or just routing.

    All in a single nifty page. No installation needed, easy.

  33. I think 2 years ago I've posted this rough idea as a solution for the draughts in Catalunia, asking if anybody knows an ingeneer etc and to pass the idea on. Maybe it worked!

  35. I've made some improvements on the EU checklist page where you can check from which country the services you use are.

    lokjo.com/eu

    It'll be improved during the next weeks (clickable links to substitutes etc) but this is allready a good start. 😊

  39. Lokjo is a european substitute for googlemaps.

    No cookies, no data, no nothing.

    When you search locations by category (clothing shop, coffee bar, museum etc) it shows all locations at once. Except for corporations and chains, they get a grey dot.
