baatliwala@lemmy.worldtoOpen Source@lemmy.ml•StreetComplete: A fun way to contribute to OpenStreetMap

9 days agoThe only thing which F-Droid reports is that it uses jawg.io for visualising the map tiles and that is considered non-free is because it is… commercial?
This is the quote from the Streetcomplete github:
Since mid 2020, JawgMaps provides their vector map tiles service to StreetComplete for free, i.e. the background map displayed in the app.
Personally I don’t care that much about FOSS/non-FOSS but IMO a reason like that is least of my concerns when looking at open source. If they’re providing a free (as in money) service to an open source app then that’s perfectly fine.
