 And this make another example why osm is useless.

 a friend give me this location.
 i will use google, because there is no other variant that i can use
 without installing a server !!!!!!~!! Are you kidding me ?

  45°31’49.28″N, 25°59’18.94″E

 this is basic, not even basic, but elementary.

 happy complaining that people prefer to use gm instead of osm.

 Don`t make a google maps competition, but make the site usable at least.

 now the only way to search for gps coordonates is with -43.34463743 and
 +23.43434343

 What is that ? Who knows what is that ?

 And who knows how to convert from  45°31’49.28″N, 25°59’18.94″E to that
 freakishness ?
