Well that's kind of confusing with the OSMF being a (in the community) very widely used abbreviation to refer to the OpenStreetMap Foundation. I guess we'll differentiate based on capitalization?

Author here. I've heard that before. Maybe I should really rename. Got any suggestions? "osms" (OSM search) might be misleading because it reminds me of SMS. "osmfind" is a little long for my taste, but well, maybe it's better than "osmf".

Oh, I like that one. I'll think about it for a bit, but maybe I'll take it. Thanks!

I just discovered https://osmq.eu and https://osmq.org. I guess this name is taken :(

May I suggest osmfd? I use fd instead of find on the command line. Also it just means adding one letter and no ambiguity.

XOSM - as in eXplore

CLOSM - might be better as a horror movie

Hmm, I'm afraid I'm a bit biased against anything "explore", because I always associate it with Microsoft (internet explorer and file explorer).
