    Also my reaction when I, as a mapper, see a place that hasn’t been touched in the US aside from the original TIGER import.

    The hallways and stairs in my school are mapped. Heck, a demolished building was updated in OSM faster than the map on the school’s website

    Alright question time: how do I find out the info on a GPX track? I can see it in the map view, and I can see it in JOSM. I just can’t get any info about it, even though it’s a public trace and is no doubt on the publice trace OSM website

    Me when I notice that Helsinki’s public transport app uses OSM and you can just search for connections to a place of interest as if you were using CoMaps.

    I use it, but it’s screwed me so many times on construction shit. Like it or not, Gmaps live info is lightyears better.

      Gmaps traffic can be activated as an overlay in OSMAnd. Super simple.

      Google and Apple have an effective duopoly on traffic info.

          Well, now. I might give it a shot. OsmAnd~ has been my favorite iteration to date.
