„On your way to the ER? Make a quick stop at Wallmart to get some vitamins!“
I am using Organic Maps for all my navigation needs (mostly bike and pedestrian navigation).
Organic Maps or Magic Earth?
Yey more ads on its way, can’t wait what else Google is in store for us
Thankfully other very good map apps exist, so people can jump to a new map app if google gets fucky with the core functionality of it
Any recommendations? So far, Google maps has remain my go-to despite my efforts to de-google myself.
OpenStreetMap, and the various clients for it. I personally am a big fan of Organic Maps, fast, responsive and clean. If you happen to be on iOS, I hear Apple Maps is also not as bad as Google, though also not open source.
Is there an OSM client that has live traffic info or incorporates live public transport schedules? This has been the only thing keeping me from switching.
AFAIK OpenStreetMap itself doesn’t have live traffic info, and I do not know of any client that has it, sorry :(
Magic Earth is another that’s polished and easy UI, plus it’s privacy respecting
And this kind of bullshit is why I stopped using anything Google, or at least heavily ad blocked like YouTube.
Because they want money for their service?
Go ahead, use MapQuest, I’m sure it’ll be just as good.
Sucking the corporate capitalist chode one ad at a time
Go ahead, pay for a shitty Garmin or Atlas every year. Just another code for you to suck on as well.
You’re not thinking of the other options on a phone you don’t have to pay for
You also come across as a very simple minded ass
Use them then and stop complaining about Google IMO. None of them are nearly as good and that’s why I couldn’t care less about an ad.
