Both OSM and Organic Maps are SEVERELY lacking in businesses. So many places aren’t in the directory.

You search for fast food and only a couple pop up. Search for s fancy steakhouse by name, nothing. It shows about half of the weed dispensaries in my area…

Is there a way to update the “phonebook”?

Has shitgle been spending money trying to make all other maps unusable? It sure fuckin seems like it.

    That’s just saying “we want to sell access to our code, so we can’t make it open source”. Basically the definition of proprietary software, no?

        My point was that it’s not so much “fair reasoning” as just a statement of that fact.
