OpenStreetMap's "default" renderer, Carto, is getting rendering support for street lamps! (lemmy.world)

This pull request was merged a couple weeks ago that subtly renders street lamps as "a simple dot with halo". Stable versions of Carto seem to be released roughly twice a year, and this one just missed the latest cutoff (v6.1.0 was released three weeks ago). Still, if you don't typically add street lamps because they don't show up on e.g. Carto, now's a good time so they show up on the next release.

For those unfamiliar with the name, Carto is the default rendering style you see at openstreetmap.org.

Fuck yeah, I mapped dozens of them at my old apartment just for completeness, I can't wait to see what it looks like with them all.

    I mean yeah you can visualize any data in osm with a custom map, but I mean I can't wait to see what it looks like in the default map, so I can see how other people who aren't using custom views or have explicitly enabled stuff I've edited see my edits.
