Beware! This app is an entry drug and soon you might find yourself being heavily invested in OSM, editing more complex data in other apps or on your computer...
there is a narrow alleyway near me that all the GPS systems seem to think is a road. It isn't a road, you cannot travel down it. It's bugged me for years, if we updated in this app will I fix it for other GPS systems or is this a standalone thing that only nerds use?
It's the best replacement for Google keyboard I've tried by a wide mile. I like the gestures it has by comparison, they allow finer control. It's also very stylish. I'll probably use it for a long while.
I've been trying to find a new keyboard for a while now but I find myself missing the gif menu. 😩 The second they add one to futo or heliboard I'm so down
Undo has been available in the Alt Menu of GBoard for a while. Long press on an editable text field then select Undo in the popup alternative menu (sometimes you need to scroll over or tap the 3 dots to see the full menu choices)
Yeah, I'm thinking that's the case ... maybe it's a tweak to their Android text boxes. That seems like something that's got to be keyboard independent.
The options that you see there are not dependent on your keyboard though. Change your keyboard to something else, and you still see the same options when long pressing a text field.
I rarely use that keyboard, but once in a while you just need to type something in a terminal or a remote desktop or something, and it really comes in handy then.
Does the kernel even have that functionality built into it? I thought it only mapped the raw data from the keyboard into actual key presses, but nothing more. That is to say it's the kernel that determines the ctrl and z keys are being pressed, but it's something higher on the stack that determines what to do with that information. Could be wrong, though.
A thing I did with Key Mapper from F-Droid lets me undo by pressing Volume Down + Volume Up, and Redo by pressing Volume Up + Volume Down (the order matters). If anyone's interested I can share how to set it up.
Note that it'd work better and more seamlessly if you use Shizuku, but I don't so there's some caveats. I'll happily go into more detail if anyone wants, just ask.
So is this why I’m able to receive new emails from the Google Group I joined with my non-Gmail account, but not actually access the Google group to see past messages to the group?
Sounds like it. It happens with other Google services too. Someone could share a GDoc to your non-Gmail email, but if that non-Gmail email isn't a Google account, then you won't be able to access the doc/comments/whatever else (depending on the doc permissions, of course).
You're making a new account either way. Whether you login with a gmail or other email address makes no difference to it being a Google account. Making a gmail you ALSO get another email, which you can promptly ignore until some possible point in the future where it may be useful.
I mean if you make a gmail account just for your Google account, you'll either have to log into your Gmail account to check emails or miss potential important emails related to your account, which you would get if they were sent to your main email.
These companies typically use AI analyses of uploaded files to prevent people from doing stuff like upload child porn. Unfortunately, they can't distinguish between "pedo shit" and "picture of naked child with a nasty rash emailed to a doctor".
Several people have lost years of email because they uploaded pictures like those to OneDrive. By separating accounts, you can keep your files and your email separate.
There have also been instances of people attacking others by inviting them to WhatsApp groups (which still isn't disabled by default) and spamming a bunch of illegal shit. If you have WhatsApp set to auto backup, you may just end up sending that illegal shit to Google, who in turn detects it and kicks you out of your account.
For this reason, I think it's a good idea to separate any cloud storage accounts from your email accounts.
In theory you get the benefit of them banning your Drive Google account and leaving your email Google account alone. Google will probably link the two, but I don't think the ban will cross accounts automatically.
I suppose "harm" can be subjective in this context, and there are already some good replies here.
One more thing to add to the list that I'd consider harmful in creating a Gmail account is all of the privacy issues that come with having a Gmail account.
Out of respect for my recipients and myself, I wouldn't want all of our emails being read.
We can go down the rabbit hole of "Email is inherently insecure anyways," but that's a separate discussion.
YSK: These domains are reserved for use in examples:

Why YSK: Using these instead of made-up domain names reduces the chance of confusing readers, eliminates the possibility of phishing attacks, and avoids sending unwanted traffic to made-up domains if they happen to belong to someone.
Glad you're enjoying it! I've been having a lot of fun with it too - even if my wife sometimes thinks I'm crazy when I "just quickly run over here" to check the hours for this place, haha.
My "Global Rank" is a bit over 5000, but I'm not sure if that's the same number as you're looking at, given the range. 400th in Canada, though!
I enjoy it, too. Because of the granular data (e.g. what's this road made of?), it's got me thinking a lot more about my community, instead of just taking everything for granted.
Same! I now actively noticed when a street doesn't have specific accessibility needs. I even went, "This bus stop has a bench AND a trash can? What a treat for riders!"
