Our Mapy.cz is growing and gradually transitioning to Mapy.com. Such a small change—just two letters—so why write an article about it?

But why not just use Openstrretmaps?
Yeah, why help an EU company develop their free product, away from Google, when we can all just stay poor? Are they stupid?
Your Problem is that you are thinking inside this bubble of capitalism.
Dude, I use a lot of FOSS software including Linux as a daily driver. I know what you are talking about. But we're in BuyFromEU, so you shouldn't be surprised my opinions reflect that.
Personally, between supporting a Organic Maps and Here WeGo I prefer the option that will make Europe richer. Especially now that the fascists overseas have decided Europe should be up for grabs by Russia and we need to up our defense.
You can LARP "outside of capitalism" all you want but there's still a reality here that needs to be addressed.
Well you may want to download the Maps for offline Navigation and OSM is not that great for editing on mobile. Let people use whatever they want for Open street map as long they use it.
download the Maps for offline Navigation
Theres Osmand (Source availible) and Organic maps (open source) for that.
editing on mobile
Theres Streetcomplete for that.
Let people use whatever they want
I dont have a problem if you use something commercial. But at least dont fucking freeboot 90% of your Commercial thing (that being the maps) off my hard frickin work that I did under an Open Source License. You cant find something in openstreetmaps? Go and add it. You dont have time for that? Go and pay a volunteer on fiverr to do it for you. But dont install a fucking commercial App that Freeboots off of thousands of Peoples work, dosent even sponsor them so they can keep their servers Running, and then even steals my data for analytical use.
