I immediately downloaded it because there are a lot of gaps in the map data where I live. Unfortunately it asks what is written on the street sign but there are no street signs here in Juba, South Sudan. I could tell them how everyone calls the street but I can't tell them what is written on the street signs...

Oh you live in South Sudan and are on Lemmy? I think you're the first person from Africa I encounter here. I guess you're a imigrant? Or are you born there?

Indeed I only work here for a time.
