Metehan ÖzyürekPrefer @CoMaps instead of Organic Maps.
Furbland's Very Cool Mastodon™@MetehanOzyurek @Tutanota @CoMaps personally I enjoy Here’s WeGo app quite a lot. They’re even European! http://wego.here.com

@MetehanOzyurek @Tutanota it is closed source but it’s also community driven, they have a map editor program even! believe me, I love a good piece of OSS, but good, quality, privacy respecting software and OSS don’t always align. if the two were a Venn diagram, they would be two partially intersecting circles, not one circle. I love Tuta’s services, but (correct me if I’m wrong) their backend isn’t open source. /nm

Allowing the community to edit the map doesn't make it "community-driven"; it's more about governance.
I know Here and its map editor. However, they've disabled the map editor in Turkey, and some ISPs block WeGo (I don't know why). Unfortunately, the quality of the map data for both OpenStreetMap and Here is low in Turkey. So, we're stuck using Google or Yandex.
But for OSM, it's getting better in some cities. And I also contribute in my free time))
@MetehanOzyurek @Tutanota did they disable the map editor or was it a request from the Turkish government /genq
@GroupNebula563 @Tutanota
There's no news about a government request, and Here didn't provide a reason. I just saw a banner that said, "Map Editor is suspended for Turkey and Northern Cyprus," when I zoomed in on Turkey. However, Here disabled map editor after the pro-government car brand TOGG started using Here in their car media system.
