    Is there a compelling reason one might consider switching away from Organic Maps and move to CoMaps?

      Apparently, there was some drama within Organic Maps and this is a fork. Idk if it’s worth it.

        Oh dang, I must have missed it. Is there a reader’s digest version I can check out regarding the drama?

      Well it says right there that the app is hidden due to your antifeature settings.

        I didn’t disable any of this myself. Where can I re enable these settings?

          well, it’s in the settings. “Include anti features” menu.

          Settings > [App Compatibility] Include Anti-Features

          In case you’re curious, the anti-feature is “tethered network services”, as it relies on a specific download server for maps. That is inherited from it’s progenitor and is planned to be fixed.

      This is probably because “This app depends entirely on a certain instance of a network service” (cdn.comaps.app), and you have that hidden in your settings. So basically it has the download URL for maps hard-coded.
