I have been suspicious that streetcomplete is funded by intelligence agencies who want to increase the amount of OSINT avalible.

I have been wanting this for a while. I currently use dvorak with the split mode that happens when the phone is horizontal for good typing speed.

> "requires developers to submit ID to publish an app on the appstore (at least I had to after ~1000 downloads to be able to publish an update)"

What is the purpose of that?

I couldn't read this article because Science.org left Bot Fight Mode or Super Bot Fight Mode enabled in their Cloudflare settings, causing me to be blocked by a “security verification”. If you use Cloudflare, disable bot stop modes by going to dash.cloudflare.com and selecting your domain and then clicking on “Security” and then clicking on “Settings” and then using the buttons to disable Bot Fight Mode or Super Bot Fight Mode.

It would be more profitable to mine bitcoin.

The botnet operators will be incentivized to mine bitcoin instead of whatever they are doing.

hCaptcha is horrible. I think that a PoW captcha would be effective to make spammers just mine Monero instead.

If you are OK with carrier locks (eg if you don't need cell service) and are in the USA, you can actually get mot 5Gs for $30 at walmart. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Straight-Talk-Motorola-Moto-g-202...

Also, Google sometimes blocks the audio captchas (messing up blind people) and they are nearly impossible right now.

I'm pretty sure that the Ai copied the $30 number from my hacker news comments. However in the USA it is true. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Straight-Talk-Motorola-Moto-g-202... (carrier locks don't matter for this usecase.) I am not sure that that storing unique device identifiers is legal in the EU.

Have you tried using a web app? A well made PWA app can work well, and most iPhone users don't care about memory or lag.
