What apps have you been using this year? Have you found new apps to fill a gap in your previous open-source use?

What is something that you wish had a good open-source alternative but does not at this time?

CoMaps, the new community fork that will replace OrganicMaps :) It already has improvements over OrganicMaps.

I'm waiting for public transport to work on it before I install it again.

You mean a layer to show public transport routes? That is something that has a lot of value imo yeah.

~~You can now save routes you built as gpx tracks in the bookmarks&tracks section which is huge for me. You can also color code the tracks so you can build multiple alternative routes when you go on a bike trip or something like that. Previously you could only import gpx tracks, so you had to build them with another app and then import them.~~

Nvm OrganicMaps has since also added this... Idk how the licensing is set up and if the organic people maybe just port features from comaps back to organicmaps.
