> And donate How do you square this with Organic Maps being organised as a for-profit entity?

  Same as when I donate money to Apple.

    You donate money to Apple?
    • cryo32 4mo ago
      Yes. Wilfully.

        So yeah, if you donate money to Apple, Inc., Organic Maps makes sense for you. For everyone else, it seems like a scam.

          Calling developers who providing you a great OSS app a scam because you don't like how project run is very rude imo

        It is not common for American for-profit corporations to accept donations. What you are paying is a retail price for Apple products. (Post edited after a check of the legality, but donating to Apple would still be highly unusual, and if the parent admits to doing this, he’s not going to get any less grief.)

          > As a USA for-profit corporation, Apple is unable to accept donations I don't think this is true. You can donate to a for-profit corporation. It just counts as income to them and isn't deductible to you.
