We're proud to reveal the logo for CoMaps — designed and chosen by the community.

From maps to code to design, CoMaps is 100% community-powered — and this logo is no different. It’s a symbol of what we’re building together: free, open, and offline map navigation for everyone.

The winning logo was created by @Flummic. The initial round had 21 logos submitted, resulting in 6 finalists, followed by an iteration process where people collaborated to make improvements (https://codeberg.org/comaps/Governance/issues/78).

Thank you to everyone who shaped this milestone. We’re just getting started.

Can some1 pls give me a tldrd (too long didnt read drama) of the organic maps vs copmaps situation?

While portraying Organic Maps as a community-driven project, shareholders were making decisions behind closed doors - a Kayak ad affiliate link was added, parts of the open-source code was hidden, and shareholders are leaving the door open for selling the company and pocketing profit from contributor work (this would likely go the unfortunate route of Maps.Me).
