Happy to see, Google maps I've found hard to replace. but it's a marathon not a sprint
What OSM needs is a widely used service with consumer real time updates. The only thing I've been missing is showing closed roads or traffic. But that is all user sourced. Of we get enough people on board we are golden.
ill switch when they have usable public transport. i get its a big effort. but without it its useless to me.
Try Oeffi for public transport, it's awesome.

ahh unlucky for me. doesn't work in my region :(
Oh yeah, unlucky :(
There is also transportr and a couple of other apps on fdroid if you search for transport. Maybe you find something for your region.
