Not weird. I keep my phone on airplane mode unless I'm actively making a phone call, for privacy reasons (here in the USA, cell tower data is sold to anyone with money through data brokers). Using a mobile map app (Google, Bing, HereWeGo, etc.) with location services on would be pretty bad for privacy. I like the fact that CoMaps works even when the location service is off (unless I don't know where I am and I need the current location) and the airplane mode is on.

The web interface is the official OSM at https://openstreetmap.org/ - it works well in both desktop and mobile browsers. The CoMaps app is mainly useful to those without mobile data plans or prefer not to, as it stores the maps offline/on-device.

It still crashes when I try to get a walking direction... it does not happen with driving or bicycling directions, just walking.

Once again Trump proves himself to be a mere opportunist and grifter without principles or convictions. While in office Steven Mnuchin tried to kill crypto at the behest of the banking industry and Trump was vocal against Bitcoin. Once he left the White House he peddled his own NFTs.

The biggest irony is, even as PM claims that none of their money goes to "woke", PM is a MVNO, which means it merely resells services from a "woke" big mobile company (I think it's T-Mobile in this case). So indirectly PM funnels money to T-Mobile, which then might donate some money to "woke" non-profits.
