Yeah I was always a boost user on reddit but there are too many bugs on the Lemmy version so I switched to Sync and have been very happy.

Hey I live in the UK and that’s super helpful! Definitely a feature I’ll need so will have to figure this out although the setup looks a little complicated at least for only moderately techy people

Hey, thanks for your answer. I’ll have to look into OSM Go! and Every Door since they’re not ones I’ve heard of

My first impression of OsmAnd was that it’s cluttered and unintuitive so it’s interesting to see how many people recommend it. Will try to tinker and see if I can get it to work for me.

Also magic earth and organic are both ones I’m gonna have to compare to find which suits me as my primary navigation app

Hey that’s really helpful thanks. I’ve also had most of them installed the last week and just trying them out (except not driving).

I agree street complete is really easy for quick edits, also organic maps for editing in a similar way to Google maps e.g. adding business opening hours, or business websites etc.

It’s interesting to learn Magic Earth is good for driving I may have to try it out. I’m currently mostly using organic for navigation.

Do you recommend using the advanced editing apps (Vespucci, OsmAnd) for editing or using the ID editor on the OSM website?

I’m using eBay and honestly can see quite a few listings at that price (2nd hand ofc)

The i5-7500 is only £30 so almost 1/3 of the price of the 7700 which is great. Would 4 threads be enough for my application? Also what stat/website do you use to look at idle power?

Yeah honestly either would probably have plenty of power for my use case. The last column shows approximate 2nd hand prices in the UK. The 7700 is around £85 and the 7700k is around £120 although with some searching I’m sure I could find both cheaper. Thanks for the info

Yeah I’ve got quite a lot of content with h265 so that’s definitely worth knowing thanks!
