For more on this, and why I think we shouldn't advocate for W3W, see: https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2019/03/why-bother-with-what-three-words/ for theoretical reasons and https://w3w.me.ss/ for some practical examples. https://plus.codes seems much better, but sadly it uses numbers instead of words, which are much harder for humans to remember ( https://xkcd.com/936/ ), so I don't think it will ever catch on.

I wish https://plus.codes/ took off. The benefit compared to what 3 words is that you can use the closest city to give directions and cells next to each other share the bigger cell name. Source: over 1 year ago

New to this so sorry if this is stupid. I've been trying to use https://plus.codes to try to check an address for availability at starlink. Whatever code I put in, it simply tells me afterwards "please enter an address or a plus code". That website seems to give me either a shorter or a longer plus code. Neither of them seems to make the starlink website happy. When I try putting in the address, it doesn't like... Source: about 2 years ago

I have a custom map that I use for a game, and I would like to change it's style to a dark one, like the one we can find on https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com/, or on https://console.cloud.google.com/. However, when trying to edit my map, I only have 6 styling options (default, satellite, landmass, etc...), none of those being dark. Is there any way I could add a dark style? Maybe with the "JSON" you can generate... Source: about 1 year ago
To that end, I took screenshots using Google's Map Style App. Really handy tool for getting a good sense of scale without having to deal with city names and other labels. I put those into GIMP as a base layer and edited the whole thing from there. It ended up being a way bigger project than I anticipated! I worked at it on and off for a couple months and finalized it with two versions of the map: the one you see... Source: over 1 year ago
I start by styling google maps to get the extra garbage out of there. Then I screen capture it and I finesse it with Photoshop or GIMP (free) to get the pics in a usable state for the laser cutter. Then I used LightBurn to actually make the cuts and etches. Source: over 1 year ago
To make this map I first used styling wizard and took a screenshot of the city, then opened inkscape to vectorise the image (to get vector quality). Source: over 1 year ago
