No better time than the present to switch to OpenStreetMap

For Android, I use OsmAnd~ which uses OpenStreetMap data and allows you to download maps to calculate routes offline, something Google Maps couldn't do for routes by foot and by bike last time I tried.

It also has better coverage for some small paths in natural areas like forests. Give it a try!

I just did literally the only thing I CAN do, which is rate it 1 star and call out their spinelessness. I'm sure this token, irrelevant act will be ignored at best or manually removed at worst. But until they drag me off to the gulag I'm absolutely not going to shut up and play along.

Fuck Trump, Musk, their MAGA cult, and anyone who enables or colludes with them or fails to fight back.

Degoogled already! Installed /e/os on my Pixel 6a! A little irritated though as it seems like literally every app I've used is tied to Google!!

This is pathetic and reeks of insecurity big time. Hope that this debacle improves your QoL, Americans.

Mexico should rename "America"

You mean Estados Unidos ? In Spanish, 'America' already refers to the north and south continents, not to the USA
