One thing map Google Maps seems to lack is moving street labels. When I zoom in and out, I still want to see the names of the streets. They're not physical maps, why not always show me the name of the street? It doesn't need to be a series of static images at different zoom levels, they could just move the name of the street around, but they don't. Sometimes I zoom in on Google Maps and a street name will disappear despite the entire street being visible and it showing the name before. It's beyond frustrating. Strangely enough, randomly highlighted businesses and their dollar sign prices estimates never seem to disappear... However, there are two things that keep me on Google Maps that others don't seem to have: 1. Public transit directions - I live without a car, I want to be able to get directions that use the subway, and I've never seen anything comparable to what Google Maps does here in combining walking+subway (or occasionally the bus if there's no other choice) directions. Google Maps also highlights everything in the correct colors (Red for Red Line, green for Green Line, blue for Blue Line, orange for Orange Line, purple for commuter rail (painted purple IRL) and yellow for buses (painted yellow IRL)), which matches my mental model for how I get around in the city. 2. Web based API - One of my main uses for Google Maps is checking directions on my PC before I leave my home. Despite Google's best attempts to hide it (and all browsers' best attempts to hide their bookmark shortcut feature for some reason), you can bookmark shortcuts with URL queries to skip the increasingly sluggish Google Maps UI and get results directly. I use the following: (regular Google Maps query, shortcut `gm`) https://www.google.com/maps/search/%s https://www.google.com/maps/search/%s (directions from my house, shortcut `dir`) https://www.google.com/maps/dir/my+street+address,+boston,+ma+my_zip/%s/ https://www.google.com/maps/dir/my+street+address,+boston,+m...
