While I do agree that these features are very useful, and interesting, they are unfortunately not the type of service that I am looking for. I encourage you to check out AllTrails, so that you can see an example of what I mean.

I’d be concerned if All Trails started taking all that data and charging for access.

I share the very same concern.

Ah, my apologies, I wasn't specific enough in my intent for the post. I am looking for something akin to AllTrails -- you search for a trail, and the site provides you with all of the relevent information: descriptions, pictures, waypoints, information about trail dangers, maps (that's where OpenStreetMap would come in), time to complete the trail, distance, elevation gain, hiking season, etc.

EDIT: I have now updated the post so that it is more accurate in its intent.

FYI, you can edit post titles directly. You don't need to put an "edit" in the description.

How come Lemmy randomly shows these super old posts, every now and then?

Is Connect open source? I can't find a repo for it.

Why ban natural grass? Would putting people on a water meter not accomplish the same thing? Being on a water meter would, theoretically, reduce waste, but at the same time allows one to maintain some of their liberty.

I worry that these sorts of things would end up turning the site into a popularity contest (or, well, more of a popularity contest than these sorts of sites already are. That being said, I'm quite proud of Lemmy, currently, as it appears to be resisting that). Also I'm not entirely sure how things like payed comment awards would work with everything being federated.

ie oldest postes && least liked First

This would pretty much automatically throw out all troubleshooting posts. These sorts of posts, very often, don't receive many likes, as that is not their purpose. On top of that, there has been many a time that I have been saved by finding some ancient forum post that solved my problem.
