Add locations as facets

[berkes]

Locations, such as city-names could be extracted and added as facet.

A toot does not have location data, but city-names, or areas or agglomarations might show up in the toot. As well as the word "remote".
We could use a database with city-names, and check against that. Some false positives might occur, such as city called "job" that might show up. For that we might need a follow-up feature to deny certain "cities".

When I index this, and I search for "linke"
Then I expect a block "region" to appear with the facet "Berlin"

If yes, localize it. As a german speaking user I don't feel addressed by the job search.

@sadmin Off course feature-requests are welcome!

When you say "localize"do you mean the entire search page? Or just the toots it indexes? Or a feature to "filter only german" or so?

The last one is planned, the second one already implemented (but must be fine-tuned for german) and the first could be put on the backlog.

What do you think?

@flockingbird I'd expect a german user interface with a filter based on german cities/regions. With the filter applied only toots appear that advertise jobs in that region. For the language of the toots itself I have no preference. I'd recommend not to exclude english toots that contain job descriptions for jobs in german cities since this is pretty common.
