@acidus nice! I found a lot of improvements! 👏👏👏 · 1 month ago

Nice update! It acts a little funky when trying to use it with clients like gemcall or gmni. I tried taking the full URL from amfora and it gives me the right location but not the right units. · 1 month ago

@acidus just independently discovered the new version, you did great! I like it alot. only thing I can thibk of is to add an extended full detail page with more info like wind speed/direction and humidity. also might want to account for the scenario where someone wants to use ferenheit+24hr format or celseus+12hr format · 1 month ago

👽 acidus

thanks for all the feedback! just launched an updated version: you can search for a new location. you can specifically toggle metric or imperial (by default uses country to determine unit to use) metric also controls using a 24 hour clock vs 12 hour clock. the search is OK. I can change to a different geocode service based on feedback, or allow you to directly enter Lon/Lat of your location. any more feedback? what about the info displayed? · 1 month ago

This is dope, but, it needs the option for manual input because it has me in a city I am not located it. · 1 month ago

This is nice. It picks up my location VERY incorrectly, but oh well. · 1 month ago

👽 smokey

Oh also congrats for making a good weather site, all the other gemini weather projects broke for my location · 1 month ago

I like the 12 hour clock as its what my country uses, if you develop the project further it would be neat to use geminis user identity fingerprint system so users can individually customize settings and locations. or you could go the wttr.in route and have URL based settings like /city country?u where u is US format · 1 month ago

Great indeed. Two things though. Specify location manually and use 24 hour clock instead. · 1 month ago

👽 steve

Wow, very nice 👍! also, can you specify the place? it took the location from the ISP which isn't correct · 1 month ago

👽 bie

would be nice to be able to specify the location manually (it gets mine wrong) · 1 month ago

👽 justyb

Works well. Picks up my location as the nearest big city, but close enough. Very nice indeed. · 1 month ago
