    My issue with these is that my use case is public transport, for that it seems like GMaps is still unbeatable, i hope to find an alternative as good or better based on OSM soon because it’s the one tool i still have no alternative to

      Where are you from? Where I live (in the Netherlands) there’s an official tool from the public transport services which works just as well as gmaps to plan your train/tram/metro/bus journey.

      Same same. This is a problem in shithole cities. Good cities have their own transit apps (which are like Uber for public transit).

        Out of curiosity, any examples? I know for NYC people use Citymapper, but that’s available for most big cities.

      If you’re American, some of them support transit now. I have Magic Earth and it supports it in most major metro areas (and even my dinky little city I believe lol)
