Sorry, it was on my todo list, I'll update them as soon as possible!

I'm sorry to hear that this bug is still present. I've tried to diagnose it so many times, but it only happens randomly and only when running through CloudFlare. I believe that at the core of the issues is that some requests arrive twice, thus the system is trying to register the same user twice.
I don't think that's the reason, otherwise I would be able to login with the users I tried to register. And I can´t I get "No account matches..."
Nice. I love the choice of basemaps, including the lovely Thunderforest ones which you don't see many places! I liked the download as KML - it loaded up okay in Google Earth. Would be good to have map state in the URL bar, e.g. map position and probably basemap selected for sharing which I would imagine is in your list.
Thanks! Yes, position is definitely on our list, as well as to linking to individual points. Can you explain how would you use the basemap in the URL bar? If you select a basemap on your own map, it'd be saved so there is no need to overwrite it in the URL.
It's nice that this isn't Google, and it's a good product, but it's still a non-Free product. I'm still looking for a FaiF version of something like this - does anybody know of one? Seems like a slap in the face to all of the OSM developers to use an entirely Free stack with a proprietary veneer on it.
Hi, I made MapHub. There is nothing I have against open sourcing parts or the full MapHub product, but it's a very delicate decision, so I'd like to wait and think more about it. Would a GitLab like business model make it more attractive for you?
Good job! Check out what I'm working on: http://mapme.com/ http://mapme.com/stories If you ever want to chat maps, ben@mapme.com :)
Also, why is "category" required? Is a global namespace of map names the smartest thing to do? How often do you think people will create a map called "SF" or "Golden Gate Park"? There will be name collision all the time.
More than anything else, can you please add a distance calculator for the track tool? They had this in Google Maps classic but the new one removed it. I used Google Maps to plan the runs for my running team and the inability to estimate the distance is a huge problem. Google Maps has it as two separate tools now. So now I have to draw each leg of a running route twice: once to estimate where the mile is and another t…
Would you like to have points on each kilometer / mile along the route?

Ahh yes it is saved, but since it's possible for any user to change the basemap of any map in their own session (but not save it) they may want to have that choice persist if they then share it further. It's a possibility I guess. You could use a short code to show base=T1 for example

What kind of distance tool would you use for your running team? We have one built in, where once finishing a track you can save it's length on the right side. It's only in metric units at the moment. Would you like to have points on each kilometer / mile along the route?
Here's an example of such a map:

It would be great if there is a number under the cursor that tells me how long my current track is as I move the cursor and add waypoints and maybe another number to tell me the distance between the last way point and the cursor. Does that make sense?

It would be great if it would keep updating the distance as I drag the track along. Basically my use case is like this: I need to plan a route from starting point and it has to go for X number of miles. To satisfy that requirement I have to figure out which way to turn or which streets to take and how much farther I have to draw the route.
