  I switched recently, and it is really good. It doesn’t have public transport yet (for the most part), and I rarely drive, but for walking, hiking and biking it is very nice. OpenStreetMap is shockingly well developed, I had no idea this existed. It has almost all the local businesses in my area, really did not expect that. It doesn’t have restaurant reviews and stuff though.

    My area was missing a bunch of businesses, so I added them. It’s really easy, so definitely consider helping fix stuff as you notice it. I usually take the time to add metadata like phone number, hours, and website, because sometimes that’s useful.

      Nah disagree, I often check google maps just for reviews if I want to find it try a new restaurant. But I can imagine how difficult that would to implement in oss and most importantly, moderating it would be near impossible.

      Yes, maybe use it with a pseudonym account, with several accounts or only when on holidays (on hikes for example, its like geocaching!).
