I am a software developer from South Africa.

I’ve been keeping an eye on OSM for years, but never created an account until 2023. Most of my “volunteer time” goes towards editing Wikipedia, Wikidata, and Wiki Commons.

I have always begrudgingly used Google maps, but I’ve reached a point where I can’t tolerate it any more. I’ve always known Open data sets are the way to go, and it’s about time I do my part.
