OpenStreetMap Förderung BaWü• #MAGA decides it would be a great idea to block #Huawei from #Android
• Astonishingly, they don't immediately give up
• They invent #HarmonyOS instead
• It's extremely popular in #China
• They intend to roll it out #worldwide
• What will happen to #GoogleMaps ? 🤔
Jmbmkn@OSM_tourism is #OpenStreetMap used as the data for for the HarmonyOS map app? Any way it can be downloaded to play with it?
@jmbmkn AFAIK you need to buy a Chinese mobile phone version or a tablet which is already delivered with #HarmonyOS. But probably there's a possibility via the #OpenSource version https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenHarmony
@jmbmkn there's no "HarmonyOS map app", but a bunch of apps, all based on #OpenStreetMap
