Phone (not rooted) running Android 11 and Termux doing superuser/root operations on a USB flash drive connected to the phone, for example "cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sda1" and "mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/v1" --> Update-6 through Update-8 and "Connecting a USB device to QEMU using termux, termux-usb, usbredirect" at https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/19635 (see also Update-9, Update-10, Update-11).

Done on a phone that is not rooted running Termux, termux-usb, usbredirect, and QEMU --> "cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sda1" and "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda1 v1" and "mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/v1" and "mount /dev/mapper/v1 /root/1" where "/dev/sda1" is a partition on a USB flash drive ("dev/sda") plugged in the phone: https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/19635 (github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/19635'cryptsetup)

Yes. Even without enabling root, you can install Termux[1] and have a full Linux cli environment with ssh.

> don't understand not more people want to access their DCIM folder via sshfs

I agree. I sync my camera folder with Syncthing[1], so as soon as I take a photo it is available on my laptop.

As usual don't forget that Android/Linux isn't GNU/Linux,

With this, I was able to cross compile lone for x86_64 from within the Termux environment of my aarch64 smartphone. All I had to do was obtain the Linux user space API headers for x86_64.

I made a Termux package request for multiplatform Linux UAPI headers specifically so I could cross compile lone but unfortunately it was rejected.

I wonder how far you could get with the git client in termux. I got vim running at one point.

Crystal can be installed with just pkg install crystal. If you have Docker, you could also clone the build environment and try building Crystal locally with scripts/run-docker.sh scripts/build-package.sh -I -a aarch64 crystal.

I used StreetComplete when I had an Android phone. It looks for missing data near you, and gives you a really nice interface to input that data.

They are working on an iOS build, and I can't wait to start using it again.

There is a separate app to install with VR tool that is capable of measuring it without tape measure :)

(initially it was bundled in one app, later it turned out that Google was lying about license of arcore repository, see https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/4289 )

Skinete StreetComplete

I am an F-Droid only user and I use Street Complete to add addresses, businesses, cafes, etc which I use, but didn't exist...

StreetComplete <https://streetcomplete.app/> is an Android app for editing OpenStreetMap in a limited fashion by placing "quest" markers on the map around you. It focuses on beginners and as such makes pretty much everything easy to understand and decide, with lots of questions having completely custom UI specific to that question. Some can be seen here: https://github.com/streetcomplete/streetcomplete#screenshots

If Android users are involved, StreetComplete has a Team Mode.

Hey there, I'm an OpenStreetMap enthusiast and I was curious what kind of impact the app I am using has (I use StreetComplete[1], an easy-to-use Android app to add missing information). I couldn't find data for all my questions and some were not up to date, but I found a few starting points on how to do it myself[2][3]. Soon I realized that many more interesting questions about OpenStreetMap in general could be answered with the data and I created a website (https://piebro.github.io/openstreetmap-statistics/) to show them. Since I want the data to be up to date, I added a script to update everything easily and packed it in GitHub Actions so I can update the data with a few clicks every month.

If you have questions or feedback, feel free to comment here or open an issue at the repo.
