Selfhosted

How do I self host these? I tried docker run liquidtrees it didn't work

Is it FOSS?

@ECEC Good lord the number of replies here from people whose brains have been destroyed by "planners"...

1. Trees lower the urban heat island effect.
2. There's plenty of room for trees in dense places, so long as "density" means efficient housing and efficient transportation rather than parking lots and stroads and single-family homes.
3. Someone said "trees require maintenance", as if asphalt & pretty much everything doesn't require maintenance?
4. Trees harm cars. But cars harm cars too!

Have you ever seen how long it takes for a tree to grow?

Good post.

Wrong community.

The most dystopian thing I've seen... Fuck, idk, it's all pretty dystopian these days, I've lost count

Yeah, those are going to last at -40F/-40C nights we often experience where I live. Nor do I see them being able to add any cool relief from their shade on a hot day.

That said, it is hard to grow healthy trees in the poisoned soils of a big city. They tend to struggle and be sickly when choked by concrete and asphalt.

A big problem with trees is roots, especially in cities with dense underground infrastructure. If there’s an actual way to produce the same amount of oxygen as a tree in a smaller space, I’m all for it. I’m honestly okay with how these look, assuming low maintenance.

at least give it some shape that is not an eye sore to start with

Devil's advocate:

These cost far less to maintain than having a team or two dedicated to upkeep for the trees.

That said, I also think trees are the better option. These are an eyesore.
