the biggest problem I have with switching is that Google Maps is a business directory. open street maps is empty where i live. it works okay for navigation, but not so much for finding a coffee.

You can contribute them!

There's a pretty barebones editor in Organic Maps, but you can also check out Street Complete and Every door (more advanced and less user friendly, though insanely efficient)

I use Vespucci, it's advanced but still pretty easy if you just want to do basic editing. https://vespucci.io/

P.s. how do you link to an app on fdroid?

Oh weird. That's shared from droid-ify which is an f-droid client.

Here's the proper link https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.westnordost.streetcomplete/index.html

It says “page not found”, maybe because I'm not in EU.

Very strange. It doesn't work. I shared directly from the f-droid client droid-ify

Can you also import saved maps from Avenza Maps for Android? I have it as my other maps app

Lemmy added an alt text field for image-only posts a few versions ago; it would be nice if more people would use it.

At least this post does link to the mastodon post which it is a screenshot of.

You don't have to use it. Just paste it in the text field before or after the image.

Organic Maps is available on F-Droid.

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