     @fredy_pferdi You can see the reasons in this oppen letter https://openletter.earth/open-letter-to-organic-maps-shareholders-a0bf770c The community did not receive any respose to this oppen letter so they were forced to create CoMaps.

     @praveen @fredy_pferdi Thanks for the info.

     "an LLC was chosen over a nonprofit because it's less bureaucratic and more flexible, making it more convenient for the founders to launch the project"
