TIL there has been some drama about Organic Maps, what is the difference between OM and CoMaps?
Left from Maps.me to OM because of drama and intrusive features, do I need to leave OM for CM?
edit: seems CM shouldnt have that annoying gift icon
edit 2: CoMaps doesn't display (colored) hiking trails, so completely useless compared to Organic Maps, also can't even display tram lines after tapping on tram stop in Prague

Please don't declare software "completely useless" just because it lacks a feature you need.
I personally also need hiking trails on my map, but I know people who don't and happily use CoMaps.

what's the point of the fork if it's missing basic features of the original app? it can't even display tram lines when tapping on tram stop...
and let's not get into making fork of a niche map app of a fork of a niche map app, already Maps.me was very niche app, Organic Maps even more and they make another fork because of their feelings about something?
I actually find that it blows Google Maps out of the water for cycling (which is why/how I discovered it). I haven't really used it for driving much because my own car has a builtin nav, so can't really comment on that.
YMMV of course.
