- detaro 8y agoI'm aware that OSM is widely used (I'm a contributor to it), what does that have to do with the fact that a single website, http://openstreetmap.de http://openstreetmap.de, choose to do this kind of protest and not display some map tiles? So no FTFY, those hundreds of apps and millions of users are not affected by this protest. If they were, I'd probably agree with OP in their criticism.
- Doctor_Fegg 8y agoYou’re confusing OpenStreetMap data (used by millions) with the openstreetmap.de rendered tiles (used by a handful of Germans).
