What happened to Organic Maps?

The community forked and created comaps because the organic maps maintainers were unwilling to listen to the community, taking decisions that the community disapproved of.

Comaps seems to be more active than organic maps today

  • That is what I gathered tho, Organic Map seems to have lost not just the interest of the cummunity but everything in between.

    When you have an option like CoMaps that is opensource friendly and very active, I got 2 maps updates within like 2 weeks, you already lost it all.

    What I am impressed with is the app, it is so clean, polished and well designed so is the map.

The same that happened with Ubiquiti, pfSense, Ubuntu and Earth Magic recently.

They all start "for the community", become too big, go greedy, and forget that projects/company is nothing without users.
