Formerly @districks on the birdsite. Geography, demography, GIS, redistricting, fairmaps. Oh, and dataviz. NC native trying to learn some Dutch.
After years of using Google Maps as my primary app for driving navigation, today I drove to an unfamiliar place using @organicmaps.bsky.social for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Particularly nice was that the app was less talkative, not stating the obvious (e.g., merge).
