Software Engineer living in İstanbul.
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.
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.

Israel was always the terrorist.
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.
Israeli fanatics have killed more people in a year than Iran has in decades. Israel is a terrorist entity.
Israel has been murdering Palestinians for decades now. It’s a country founded on mass murder and genocide.
It was never about self defence.
Ever since 1948, Israel has been systematically killing everyone in their ‘promised land’.
We need to expel Israel from the UN. These religious fanatics have no place in the civilized world.
radical fundamentalist jewish terrorism.
In America police shoot bystanders around people not paying the 2.9 dollar fare.
UN General Assembly should expel Israel.
