It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?

    Visit openstreetmap.org or osm.org for short and where you can search for a place there’s an icon with arrows beside it. Hit that and then you can put in the From and To. You can pick car routing or bike routing or walking.

        AFAIK someone is working on it. But the problem is the high dynamics of public transport. Routes and schedules get changed quite often, schedules might be quite irregular (think only Sunday at 3:14). And all that data has to be stored offline. Stops might be changed do to construction work for a week. And that is in the optimal case: In some countries the bus comes when it comes, and stops if it wants to stop.

        Currently you can see where the lines of a bus or the metro go, but that’s about it, I think.
