Fully offline "proplus" is still office and fortunately that's the only one I had to deal with since this change, so I'm not 100% familiar with their newer offerings

No, it's just remote. Remote desktop is now also called Windows, also the operating system you are connecting to is called Windows.

Gnome has relatively good rdp support, so with this you could use Windows (the app) on Windows (the os) to connect to you Linux machine running Gnome.

It seems deliberately confusing naming is working as expected, Microsoft marketing team should get extra raise.

It's a remote desktop client, so it won't. OP read only the title of the article

They love to do this. 2 years ago they renamed Office (the online, browser based version) to Microsoft 365 https://www.computerworld.com/article/1614302/office-to-be-rebranded-microsoft-365.html

They can present the "new" apps to shareholders

No it's an RDP (Remote desktop) client

If you would read the article you would know that the title is perfectly correct, as currently it's only available to Win, other platforms are just planned.

It's an RDP client you can connect to pcs on the network or vms on azure

Where is the apk? Aren't you mixing it up with Organic Maps?

I can confirm. Updated on my laptop and every extension works so far.

I wrote "by osm supporting companies". The companies behind overture are also supporting osm, that's what I wanted to write, it's not necessarily a competitive project, simply data quality is different, but there is an overlap between supporting companies.

Overture maps is a project by osm supporting companies to present their fake and/or low quality data to their shareholders. They can't import it to osm because of the aformentiones reasons, so they created their own osm with blackjack and hookers.

Roads and landuse data is from osm so it it's the same. Building contours based on osm and from some MS ai tool, similar to what you get in the RapId editor. At some places it's good, in dense cities it's unusable, and there are a lot of false positives, fake buildings on lakes and rivers, etc. Shops and POIs are from Facebook, a lot of them are at the wrong position or they not exist anymore, duplicates and jokes etc.

So as I see, it's not usable by itself for anything. But it's license is compatible to osm, so you can freely copy from there. I used it to check validity of osm notes. Facebook via this allowed us to copy data from any page, it was a grey area before. Here where I live a lot of shops don't have a website only a FB page, and it wasn't clear if you can copy phone numbers, email addresses from there. Now the same data is available in overture

That's actually how World Hertitage designation started. After they moved the Nubian monuments to the new location, UNESCO figured out, we should have a list of the most important monuments the World should save wathever it takes, they named them World Heritage Sites. And that is the reason natural things were not allowed to get that designation for a long time, originally it wasn't its goal.

You don't "submit changes to the osm team", you are actually editing the live map. Reviewers can revert changes, but there isn't some process a change must go through, everything is live. Most apps don't use the live data, but regular snapahots of it, that's why it seems like there is some processing behind the scenes, but it's up to the renderers and apps, not by osm.

Answering your question: OM is an app for navigation, and using the map, functionality for contributing data is very minimal and limited. SC is an app for contributing, nothing else, e.g. you can't plan a route there. If you want to contribute, use SC. If you just navigating with OM and notice something is missing, use OM, if it's quicker than opening another app.
