   Here are the top data services I'd love to see come to the fediverse next year:

   - OpenLibrary. https://openlibrary.org/ . A great collection of books, movies, audio, other.
   - OpenStreetMap. https://www.openstreetmap.org/ We need a good `Place` vocabulary, and OSM has a great one.
   - MusicBrainz. https://musicbrainz.org/ A great way to represent `Audio` objects cross-service. The best music encyclopedia on the planet.
   - Wikidata. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Main_Page For, well, everything else.
