I consistently will check my commute to work, as there are two roughly equal routes, either of which can be disrupted for a number of reasons. As of a few weeks ago, Google maps has stopped showing my preferred route entirely, trying to put

I think it's just a play to bump up their in-app DAU for increased IPO valuation. Fuck the users, all about the short term gains. I'm curious what the percentage of people accessing the site via the official app vs all other avenu
