Offline activity suggestion: try to go as long as it's possible/safe for you without looking at your GPS, next time you're going somewhere. Or, easier mode: try navigating using a physical map and not your phone.

Whoops, already missed the first month 🫠 I'd like to say it's because I was very offline, but that only applied to the first half of February for me, alas.

Use this post for things that for whatever reason you feel don't warrant their own post, like:

• small vents about how every bar know wants you to scan a QR code for the drink list
• quick questions/requests for recs
• all barely on-topic chit chat

I usually check the route before on an online map and then go, I don't know what that counts for. It is actually not that easy to find paper maps anymore, to my regret.
Another thing is when I am looking for a shop and it is inside a huge map and GPS usually can find locations inside a building while paper maps don't deal with this. (Same goes for underground locations, I think.) I guess, that's when asking for directions comes in.
