- darkwater 3y agoTIL about it and I'm gonna try it for sure. Yesterday I had a very bad experience with a "Garmin Connect" generated route for gravel bike, by checking it in Organic Maps I could probably have avoided the issue.
- mcv 3y agoI have it too, but often forget to use it in favour of Google Maps, but Google Maps is terrible for anything not in a car or train, and OSM always has fantastic detail for hiking trails. Every vacation I find myself switching to Organic Maps. This vacation it helped us find a trail to a really beautiful waterfall in Switzerland.
- SSLy 3y agoGoogle Maps whole use case is finding restaurants and pubs in new places, and that's about it.
- mcv 3y agoEven that it's not great at. It's not showing them all, it's not showing the link to the restaurant itself upfront, but neither is the menu it lists the right one. If they actually wanted to make it easy to find the right restaurant for you in the area, there's dozens of things they could do to make it easier for people.
- BitterPanda 3y agoOrganic maps has the same feature and they also have opening hours which is cool, Google Maps still has a lot more but for an Open-Source project it's quite decent
