I thought I’d share this Mastodon bot - @SmallTownUSA - here as I’ve found it great fun.

Posting towns in the USA with a population less than 1000 that are undermapped on OpenStreetMap.org

I quite enjoy mapping areas that have nothing or very little mapped. This bot kind of helps with that. Although, I’d love another one for my home country and current country of residence.

I've made some good progress mapping out Sebeka in Minnesota over the past couple months :D

I'd love to finish mapping all the buildings but it starts to feel like a chore :s
