Are there any desktop equivalents of Magic Earth and the likes? Specifically for public transport navigation (lemdro.id)

I’ve been using Magic Earth on my phone for the last little while and have been really happy with it (I have Organic Maps and OsmAnd installed as well). I haven’t found anything good for desktop that includes public transport navigation (my primary use case).

You can install osmin on Linux. Som distros have it in their repos.

On Linux gnome maps uses OSM

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-maps for standard maps

And https://apps.kde.org/ktrip/ for public transport on linux and android

I don't think Organic Maps supports public transport navigation yet, but since you mentioned it, just a note that OM is also available in beta for desktop.

They’ve got an option when routing for public transport but it just shows the walking route
