It‘s an Web-App (only). I like Web-Apps. So it should be at osm.org . Is it curated by a working group?
The crowd also expects native apps in all app stores!
The start does not look like me/we are used to.
It looks like a good start.

There also should be an OSM-App! (Android, iOS, Desktop)
And the apps and osm.org should be alike, mostly.
Ok, OSM only offers editors, no map use. But there are >2 FOOS apps, doing it: #OrganicMaps, #MapLibre, …
Could we “merge” projects to an OSM-app? Or setup a new one, supported by the existing teams? Sure, redundant apps are needed. But >2 parents could merge the best genes to a better offspring.

Yes, the “Street” in OSM is historical and rather wrong now. We can’t rename it to OpenMap?
There are a lot of trademarks, no-one knows the meaning: RTL BVB …
So it’s no problem to use “OSM” without referencing to the full name.
We should split our appearance. Two different Web portals with different functions:
#OpenStreetMap.org - for the Editing and Coding community
#OSM.org - for the Map/Data users

Why it’s better not to add scalebars to world maps
https://observablehq.com/@neocartocnrs/geoviz-scalebar
Isn‘t it importand but trivial? Map projetions „destroys everything“ ;-)
Did the text mention the one and only exception? Use a 3D sphere to project the map on. Ok, where to place a scale in a VR space? Miles and km will become an angle. The scale could be a virtual tool to be pkacet in the map and get you „aur distance“.

@weeklyOSM @openstreetmap@a.gup.pe @openstreetmap@lemmy.ml The Story about an lonel bridge is interesting.

@richlv @achadwick @openstreetmap@a.gup.pe @openstreetmap@lemmy.ml I am sure, the Coca Cola red and the Siemens petrol are copyrighted ore trademarks. They are nt equal to normed colors (RAL in Germany) but certainly RGB values.
Private use may not be a probleme, commercial may. I am not a lawyer at last.
