probably just price. OpenAI does not have the edge over competition it once had.

This is not suprising. Anthropic models are clearly better than OpenAI ones. OpenAI no longer has a secret sauce that everyone wants to pay billions for.

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.

I see no benefit to using Waze. Openstreepmap works better.

First, google’s lawyers will not like that.

Second, in many places google maps data is not as good as Openstreetmap.

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.

It shows me where the speed cameras are :)

You can add the POIs and fill the gaps!

I disagree. It’s a step in the right direction, even if there is still a long distance to go.

My dad uses it. He’s as non-tech as non-tech gets. But I had to install it for him.

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.

OrganicMaps is amazing. Strong recommend to everyone. I only recently found out about it.

I trust Chinese hardware more than I trust American ones.
