Since the #39c3 in December, every first Sunday of the month has been a "Digital Independence Day" for trying out alternatives to dominant/big tech platforms.

If you're looking to explore alternatives to Google or Apple Maps, why not give CoMaps – or any of the other open source map-applications that are based on data from #OpenStreetMap – a try!

The web interface is the official OSM at https://openstreetmap.org/ - it works well in both desktop and mobile browsers. The CoMaps app is mainly useful to those without mobile data plans or prefer not to, as it stores the maps offline/on-device.
