@dansup five commits titled "wip" from three years ago is source code?

@dansup flat out lying, the deployment that's actually live on fedidb.org seems to be deployed dec 3 this year.

@dansup

fediverse.info isn't open source

@loops isn't open source

@fedidb isn't open source, the graphs are covered in watermarks and i can't seem to find a license for the data.

surely opening your code and data would be like the bare minimum before you make delusional claims along the lines of "being dedicated to the fediverse" and continually boasting about your accomplishments that are "openly available to the whole fediverse"

BeaconDB just hit 14M WiFi networks!! 🎉 There's also been some new features implemented recently:

- automatic map updates! tiles are now regenerated every 12 hours, so you can watch your submissions brighten up the map 🗺️ 👀 - thanks @derekmorr!
- the geolocation API now supports IP-based estimates using freely licensed DB-IP Lite data, returned as a fallback if BeaconDB can't estimate your location
- the map on the homepage now displays 100% BeaconDB data, replacing a map of MLS towers

Are you a fellow Australian interested in open data? If so, @eatham and I are starting up libre.net.au - a new online community to collect, publish and analyse datasets down under. 🇦🇺

We're currently collecting raw pricing data for Aldi, Coles and Woolworths, and we've just started working on an open database of grocery products to support tracking and comparing prices across #Australia.

Come join us on Matrix!
