I would recommend people use comaps instead which is the actual FOSS fork. OM has a long history of malicious behaviour like quietly adding ads, turning a part of its previously open sourced code proprietary and misappropriating donations. OM has lost most of its community a year ago to comaps and are now rushing vibe coded features to compensate.

I understand that you, being a contributor to CoMaps which people can see on your page, want to promote it, but it’s just spreading false info. Just one Russian community of OrganicMaps in Telegram has 4000+ members, CoMaps RU is not even at 200. Global group of OM is at 1650, CoMaps is at 840 of it.

It’s not OM who is compensating all over the place in this thread.

Thanks for the heads up, I wasn't not aware of that. I never got a single ad in OM though

It's the Kayak referral links on hotel POIs, which some people consider ads

> which some people consider ads

How are they not ads? Is this the "icloud storage promotion in ios settings" discourse again?
