Garmin’s opencaching.com site is not yet listed. We will have to wait for an updated list in the future.
Follow this link of the Geocache Listing Site Comparison.
The site can be found here: http://dafb-o.de/oc/plattformen/vergleich.html
This comparison is based on the features that the respective platforms offer to the user. Only those functions that serve the purpose of using the data have been evaluated. The quantity and quality of the caches have not been evaluated because they are user-generated content and cannot be influenced by the platform operator.
For geocaching.com, basic and premium membership are listed separately because there are many differences between them. In the original Opencaching, there is a distinction between old and new code base. The old one is in use at opencaching.pl, opencaching.us, and at other nodes. The new code base is in use at opencaching.de and opencaching.it, among others. Opencaching.com has nothing to do with the free opencaching network; why Garmin as a (commercial) operator still chose this name, will probably forever remain a mystery.

This is a great resource. Maik Bischoff, the author of the comparison, told me that he will be creating a revised English version.
Cachedrone the reviewer at Groundspeak Geocaching.com is a complete asshole.... he once said to my face (re: a cache hide he refused to publish), "how bad do you want it?". He WILL NOT publish anything I submit, and uses the guidelines to shut me down every time. Since when is a cache a few hundred km from home a vacation cache?? Yet he publishes other caches daily that break guidelines blatantly. He has admitted to my face, that he has publishes caches that he shouldn't all the time. It has pissed me off so much, I have given up and no longer cache after many years of enjoying the game. This "holier than thou", two-faced, piece of shit prick needs to disappear from this game.
