I'm not a software developer, so this is a real question:
Can it really be so hard for maps apps like @CoMaps, @organicmaps, and #OSMand and #MapsMe etc to agree on a common link format when sharing locations?

@ilumium Do you mean, beyond the geo URIs they already support (AFAICT)?

What's your use case? For me one is sharing a POI for directions (e.g. sending friends a restaurant where to meet). I can't know whether the recipient's map will contain the same POI at the coordinates. For that I use osmand URLs or OSM node URLs, which is less than ideal but has somewhat worked so far.
