I have a layer (point features) containing various points of interest (POIs), some of them have the exact same location. I would like to map these POIs and add a label showing their names.
However, for those POIs that share the same location, QGIS just display the overlapping labels and it is not readable.
Is there a way in QGIS to automatically place labels for point features so that they never overlap, even though they belong to the same layer?
I found this relevant thread, but no solution to the problem.

if you select "around point" on the labels placement tab QGIS tries to select the empty place around the point.

if you select "around point" on the labels placement tab QGIS tries to select the empty place around the point.
