Sticking it to Trump by switching to a bad maps app.
- pilotneko 2y agoI think that people are uncomfortable with the idea that Google Maps is centralized and can unilaterally change what you see. Having an offline version of a map helps protect against sudden change (go forward or retroactive). As an aside, I do really like organic maps. I keep it installed with downloaded maps for when I travel to places with poor signal, including hiking trails.
