A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

I didn't realize it was all so close. Time to plan a day trip with the kids! This will be the ultimate dad joke.

This is missing so much that is so close. Off the top of my head, in that area there's:

Zurich
Exeter
Hanover
Chatham
Belfast

I can't search my hometown Chatham Kent UK without getting results for Chatham-Kent Ontario

On a similar note, you also could visit Moscow, Paris, Dublin, London, Vienna, Berlin, Warsaw, Florence, Athens, Edinburg, Geneva, Italy, Liverpool, Naples and Newcastle without leaving the state of Texas.

This is not to be considered a recommendation.

If you go to Paris, TX, you could take a ride on the Paris Metro.

Holy smokes I have driven all those roads. Can confirm the timing sounds accurate as all those are almost 2 lane roads and you always get that person doing 60kmh when 80kmh is posted.

@Five bruh, just browse the map starting from this point. All the world is just a couple of streets.
