Hey, I really like using Organic Maps and liked using OSM+ before that, but trying to find things by the standard US address format " , , , " just fails spectacularly for me. Anybody else had that issue, or know of solutions to that?

Hi all,

A new version of MapComplete is in the works, using MapLibre and lots of Svelte.

It marks a big refactoring and a new, nice visual style. I'd be honoured if you all were to test it and eventually point out the last bugs you find.

I'm looking to keep a gnss on me when going on hikes and walks around parks, etc., so that I can upload the traces to OSM. Anyone have any recommendations for a good GNSS for this purpose? I've been looking for the most accurate one I can, but is it really worth it to find something as precise as possible? Or do small errors not matter as much?
