My problem with all of the OSM-based navigation tools is the lack of realtime data. I am trying to move away from Google in general, but 50% of my Google Maps usage is for traffic and closures along routes I know.
Just move to my country, where traffic is so bad and unpredictable that not a single navigation app can be trusted.
Traffic... That's a sticking point for some people. Closures, I find OSM is more up to date than google on that front these days.
I don't need traffic data. I live somewhere without bad traffic, deliberately. Traffic is one of the top criteria for me when choosing where to live.
