And Piefed too! But yeah, it makes sense to only show the software that your instance actually use, in case users have a software compatible with Lemmy and not Mbin and vice-versa (i think Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed are completely compatible, but that could be the case with future software options!)

Inferred from another comment that it's CoMaps. Looked it up to confirm:

Piefed is in the image!
Edit: nevermind I misread pixelfed!

I still don't get what the functional advantage of comaps would be. Organic maps is pretty good already.

I’m eagerly waiting for CarPlay support so I can fully switch over. That’s the only reason I still have organic maps.

What is Matrix?

The functional advantage is not supporting shady practices. We ditch Google Maps to avoid Google, so why go to another shady organization

Oversimplified, it's like a federated Discord

Where's XMPP ?

Organic maps has become shady just during the time when the Russia has started using different ways of forcing Russians abroad into spying for the Russia. Organic Maps is not maintained by Russians, but it is being maintained by Belarusians, and the Russia has been pressing the same things in Belarus as well.

It is a bit scary that a program that knows your location by GPS is doing shady things, if it's maintained by people who are reasonably likely to deliver some data to Lukashenka and Putin. The timing of them turning shady is very suspicious. It might be there's nothing really bad about OrganicMaps, but I cannot know. I know people who the Russia might be interested in pressuring, so my location could also be of interest for them. Since there's nothing where Comaps is worse than Organic Maps, I preferred to make the switch. That way, I don't need to consider the possibility that my maps program might be leaking my data to the most sinister people on this planet.

If you get a threat that your family might end up in a very uncomfortable prison for the rest of their lives, in a country where torture is commonplace in prisons, you might very well agree to throw unknown foreign people under the bus. One's own children and parents can easily be more important for someone than I am. And people can do a LOT to protect their loved ones.

I just downloaded it to try it out. I'm missing the options Google Maps gives for routes though. The map app doesn't always know best, so it's better to give a few options imo.

open standards

bluesky

I do wish more things I used would move to matrix or IRC. Perhaps I just need to refuse to use discord

And then there are complete opposites who only communicate via Discord and Github

Thanks! Turned out the F-droid version was less updated.

(Organic Maps was promising, but has made shady and unilateral decisions without community input or even notification).

Could you elaborate on this?

I mean, whether or not they're decentralised, they are on an open standard.

For public transport i prefer to use HERE, which is owned by a bunch of car companies i believe. Might also be good for navigation by car i wouldn't know. But although i havent found a big difference between Comaps and Organic Maps i'm inclined to continue using it.

Hey, they did list Mastodon first.
