Enshittification.
- orblivion 2y agoIt's just funny at this point.
- mxuribe 2y agoMost definitely! Or, worse: detour-ification? Or, the potentially horrible: encrash-ification? I have only played with OSM...and, honestly, I'm not going to complain if the ads are at a reasonable volume/quantity, and if they're only displayed while stationary...But, if they kick this off at a higher clip of number of ads, AND, they stat showing them while moving...Then forget that, i'd switch to OSM or other alternatives, and rather risk getting lost a little. Paper maps anyone? :-)
- AlbertCory 2y agoIndeed, and on Saturday I was driving in a slightly unfamiliar place and opened Maps just to find out how to get back on the freeway. The screen was completely covered with garbage, top and bottom. It wasn't even ads, but "parks and cool stuff to do near here" which is not remotely what I wanted right then. No obvious way to get rid of it, either.
