I disagree. It's a step in the right direction, even if there is still a long distance to go.
I use both OrganicMaps and OsmAnd. I find that OsmAnd is better for poweruser functions (like editing the map or recording a track), but OrganicMaps is a very simple navigation app that just works well.
OrganicMaps is amazing. Strong recommend to everyone. I only recently found out about it.
It shows me where the speed cameras are :)
You can add the POIs and fill the gaps!
My dad uses it. He's as non-tech as non-tech gets. But I had to install it for him.
First, google's lawyers will not like that.
Second, in many places google maps data is not as good as Openstreetmap.
Openstreetmap is better than Google where I live (Anatolian side of İstanbul).
I left GoogleMaps a while ago, it worked fine for me. The only part of Google I can't leave is Play Store. Aurora might be the best alternative there.
what was the crime committed by the bystanders who got shot by the police?
openstreetmap.org is a mappers website, not a map users website. It works great for mappers, but is horrible for people who want to use the map to find their way around.
I think the openstreetmap ecosystem really needs a better website for map users.
