Does anyone have issues finding address with standard US addresses? (lemmy.ml)

Hey, I really like using Organic Maps and liked using OSM+ before that, but trying to find things by the standard US address format " , , , " just fails spectacularly for me. Anybody else had that issue, or know of solutions to that?

Many addresses are still missing in OpenStreetMap, hence that might be the issue.

Can you please check if the address you are searching for is found on the website itself? If not, you can add it yourself. If it exists, file an issue with Organic Maps.
