just installed a firefox redirector plugin so that every time i instinctively type "maps.google.com" i will be redirected to openstreetmaps <3 <3
also would be interested in a plugin that allows bookmarks to be first result in the "awesome bar", so they can be run like a dmenu. so i make a bookmark called 'maps' and then if i type maps it takes me to that link.
i fucking love maps ok. i really do. i travel the wold in digital maps every day. today i went to hokkaido, japan.
@alyx oo nice thanks!!!
@eribloodlust what is your favorite city mapwise? Mine is Bucharest, because it looks like a pizza 🍕
@eribloodlust That has actually been possible for ages, you can even use arguments in the bookmarks. e.g. When I type "leo someword" it will go to dict.leo.org and search for the English<->German translation of someword!
@eribloodlust if i understand, you can do what you're saying with firefox bookmarks. just get the search query URL and replace the search query with %s. then assign a keyword
in the pictured example i would type
map 123 main street, sf, ca
in the url bar to summon OSM
you might want to add more parameters to the URL to make it more to your liking
