From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

On Sailfish OS I used to use Pure Maps, which seems to be available on Flathub. I don't know if it works on the Librem 5 though, but you might want to give it a try? There's also an optional dependency for offline maps.

Oh yeah, I saw this on Ubuntu touch also. I'll see if I can get the flathub repo loaded in. That will certainly increase the variety in apps I can use!
