@nalivaj Privacy is the main concern. It must be optional data to actively accept on each toot.
@kai getting more awake I think it would be favorable when an app had a shortcut to add tags like automaticaly convert current area to tags: "#DE #Berlin #Kreuzberg"
@nalivaj a common hashtag is the quickest way to add this. But has more problems on agreeing to such standards.
@kai Maybe creating a common location-tag-pedia... could help or show why it's impossible.
@kai I looked into location data on
a while ago; check out: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/281 without location all you can do is filter by tags and hope for folks tagging all their geo-relevant toots.
@kai That said AS2 has a Place object which looks promising to built upon:

@kai sounds very privacy invasive. You get a movement profile and know when the person is on vacation. I think tags would be a better solution.
