The MapLibre v Leaflet article sounds interesting, but loses all credibility before you even get to the text.

If the image is AI slop then the text probably is too.

It’s faster, but still incredibly slow.

They’re both vector based. Purely from usage it feels like OsmAnd is rerendering everything from scratch every time with little caching. If you pan away and pan back it takes effectively the same amount of time to recreate the previously rendered view as a fresh view. This time seems to increase with addition obfs for “live” updates etc.
When Organic Maps updates slowly it tends to feel like vector tiles “falling back” to lower zoom until more detail is retrieved.

Points of interest and amenities are probably the next most useful. Things like street lighting and sidewalks quite helpful for pedestrians. It’s more important that you are still enjoying mapping. If there is something that you know is useful but you find tedious it’s ok to skip it and either leave it for someone else or come back to it later

As it sounds like you’re on Android, I’d recommend @streetcomplete for easily adding detail while on the go.

@Sir_Kevin if it’s your own data you probably qualify for the contributors program if you don’t want to help fund development.

The F-droid version is unofficial so they’re unlikely to have an answer to that.

I think it was something like £2 when I bought it. Now it’s £39.99⁉️

They also have a €3/month subscription for ‘hourly’ map updates (and some cloud sync to compensate for Android getting worse).

But is it getting very slow these days. Especially with hourly updates turned on.

Nope.

@RealFknNito @vatlark @openstreetmap

It caused a lot of fake stuff to be added to OSM even though its update frequency was slow enough that very little of the fake stuff actually made it into Pokemon Go.

I think it did bring in a few good mappers too though so it wasn’t all bad.

@Mannivu @scorpionix the Live updates are hourly not once a month.

@bicycle @openstreetmap @osmberlin @wochenaufgabe that might be worth two paths in OSM

@Showroom7561
there is an open issue on one of the CyclOSM GitHub trackers here:
https://github.com/osm-fr/infrastructure/issues/490

@ArbiterXero previously they did. Now there’s Overture and it’s not clear his long they will continue supporting OSM.

@huojtkeg I still find this worrying as an OSM contributor.
