@Synnr looks like photos from State of the Map conferences.
Thanks. So likely also a lot of people that just like and use the app/idea/whatever; not people who directly contribute to it? I’m just curious because I tried to use it to replace Waze a couple years back and it was pretty buggy. I’m curious if they brought more people on… to be honest I don’t even know enough about it but I assume it’s a non-profit organization. or is it just FOSS?
@Synnr The amount of people who have contributed to OpenStreetMap, to the map data, is massive. More than >2,000,000 people, and about 50,000 people edit the map every month.
Which app did you try? OSM is a little decentralised, so there are many.
I don’t recall. What would you recommend now for someone used to Waze?
@Synnr I haven’t used Waze. But @organicmaps is great

Magic Earth has quite a clean interface and traffic data if you have an internet connection.
Closed source, but uses OSM data.
Saving this so I can download in a bit, thanks.
