@organicmaps Awesome job! Is there a timeline for split screen support in carplay? right now it only supports being in full screen mode

@organicmaps I always thought, when connected to AA, apps use cars compass and GPS. It seems it uses phones compass, which makes OM almost unusable on AA, because if you touch the phone, whole map rotates on car screen 😕 Or did I miss something?

@organicmaps I'm still waiting for the January release to appear on #fdroid
Is there an issue @fdroidorg?

@organicmaps @openstreetmap @zverik obviously: check the wiki! Osm wiki has a nice list of resources: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Completeness

@organicmaps disasterninja has road completion estimates

@organicmaps This is quite confusing for those following this account. Please either mark this account to the new instance or state the purpose of the second account. Limiting registration on an instance is not restricting anyone. People can still be invited and everyone can still see you outside a specific instance.

@organicmaps As others already stated: there is no need for you to create another account on another instance because your instance makes new accs invite-only.

Additionally: there is a function in mastodon to move your existing account to another instance and take all your followers with you.

And lastly: if you move your account to another instance please choose any other instance than the behemoth that has gotten too big for its own good and too big for a federated mastodon world in general.

@organicmaps
Why would it matter that Fosstodon is invite-only? You can be followed from any other instance, right?

@organicmaps merry christmas! Is there any problem to download the app from f-droid?

@organicmaps Congratulations!

@organicmaps
Nice, I'm happy more and more poeple discovering #OrganicMaps but how do you know the amount of users? Or is it the amount of different devices? Just wondering how it's counted. #privacy

@organicmaps REALLY WONDERFUL!

@organicmaps
Do you plan to have a native Linux version of your app? That would be amazing!

@organicmaps I haven't used it myself, but #Tusky, a good Mastodon client, uses it. The @Tusky team may have some input!

@organicmaps I've visited a few times! It's not far from where I grew up.

@organicmaps you phrase that like you haven’t already!

@organicmaps :blobcathearts:

@organicmaps Thank you!
It would be nice to have an opportunity to save track and then import it to OSM profile/save it...
👍

@organicmaps I don't get the point to attack something like #openstreetmap 🤦

@organicmaps companies are not our friends! They are only good as long as they give da money 😂

@organicmaps Too bad Facebook's Mapillary sucks so bad😡 Literally days to see sequences in #OpenStreetMap #OSM 😡

@organicmaps pretty sure you'll overtake maps.me next year!

@organicmaps /me braces himself for a lot of bad takes on those numbers.

For starters people need to realize that the active user numbers are dominated by newbies, 99% of which will edit once or a small handful of times and then vanish.

Nothing wrong about that per se, but it does mean framing the user number as "popularity" is at best misleading.
...

@organicmaps Still surprised how little (by usercount) StreetComplete is to iD in our mobile-first world.

@organicmaps I believe this is the link to the other possibilities for donations/support?

https://organicmaps.app/donate/

@organicmaps How much of the money does @opencollective and @Liberapay keep?
If you are there too?

@organicmaps Oh well. I do like the Patreon convenience of one place to manage multiple donations but sad that their cut is so high. Wish there was a more altruistic alternative.

@organicmaps I made a street name correction to OSM and the correction was quickly picked up by both Google and Apple. So I definitely see the value with this.

I could see a process of defining a type of change better (“add” verses “correct”), and that the change is in fact something that will be seen globally and not just on our own device. Seems subtle, but a don’t think folks understand how much they can really contribute to OSM.

@organicmaps one of these on every screen that might have results? (pardon my ignorance if app already does)

@organicmaps This would be a great question to post on the Patreon site too.

@organicmaps

Maybe add a list (or link to a list) of devices? I assume that most users are neither aware, if their device is running on 86architecture, nor if it is 32bit. (but i believe most devices are 64bit amd?)

@organicmaps As there are still answers coming in, maybe edit the question? E.g. add "If so" before the second question.

@organicmaps
A poll would be fun anyhow

@organicmaps fdroid

@organicmaps FDroid

@organicmaps F-droid on Fp4.
We are an absolutely conformist niche... 😊

@organicmaps I’m only familiar with Swift and SwiftUI, but I really like contributing updates to map data in my rural area.
It’s where I live but also where I find map data too be the most lacking, so I’ll happily help improve things for everyone.

@organicmaps your project is amazing. 👍
Till now I've been using OSM via OSMAnd~.
Can you please give me a hint, why I should change over to Organic Maps?

@organicmaps We love Organic Maps, especially the feature to add/edit #OpenStreetMap right in the app :)

What are your thoughts/plans towards integrating crowdsourced live traffic data in a #privacy-respecting way with user consent?
