George Ellenburg (he/him/his)Sadly, <a href="https://bofh.social/tags/OsmAnd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OsmAnd</a>/ <a href="https://bofh.social/tags/OsmAnd+" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OsmAnd+</a> is not a good replacement for <a href="https://bofh.social/tags/Google" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Google</a> <a href="https://bofh.social/tags/Maps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Maps</a>. Not for navigating at least. I wish there was a way I could plan a route either on my desktop (<a href="https://bofh.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a>) or web because the UI/ UX in OsmAnd+ is so fucking cluttered and "busy" that it's damn near next to impossible to actually do something. I'm trying to plan a route from my current location to two destinations. I'm starting at Point "A", my current location. I put in the address for Point "C", my ultimate destination. But then I realize I need to add a Point "B". But as soon as I go to add Point "B" it gets placed at the end. And there's no way to move Point "B" to actually be my first stop. Editing the locations doesn't work either because now I'm stuck with two identical destinations. There needs to be separate modes for the app. Normal mode and Advance mode. Right now some settings are duplicated across multiple pages and multiple menus. I HATE THIS FUCKING APP! (But I hate Google Maps even more.) Oh well. Oh look, <a href="https://bofh.social/tags/MapQuest" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MapQuest</a> is still in business.....

impermanen_ 🕊️As a MapQuest alum from the mid aughts when we were dueling with Google to be the most popular maps app I’m pleased to see <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MapQuest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MapQuest</a> staging a comeback by being the sole maps-and-driving-directions app that isn’t caving to the embarrassing and deeply fascist “Gulf of America” edict.Also cute that they created an app so anyone can pretend to be Glorious Emperor and rename the Gulf as they please. <a href="http://gulfof.mapquest.com/img/map?name=Anticipatory+Obedience" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">http://gulfof.mapquest.com/img/map?name=Anticipatory+Obedience</a>

Darnell Clayton :verified:As much as I like the idea of <a href="https://en.osm.town/@openstreetmap" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@openstreetmap</a>, when I travel abroad I primarily use <a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Google</a> Maps due to the latter’s accuracy (especially in non-English nations) compared to rivals.For anyone suggesting <a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/AppleMaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AppleMaps</a>, let’s just say they still need to focus on fixing their data in <a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/America" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#America</a> 🇺🇸 (<a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/Mapquest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mapquest</a> is better in my opinion).👉🏾 One man decided to take on <a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/GoogleMaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GoogleMaps</a>, 20 years later <a href="https://one.darnell.one/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> is still going strong 🔛 <a href="https://mstdn.social/@TechCrunch" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@TechCrunch</a> 📰 <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/10/one-man-decided-to-take-on-google-maps-20-years-later-openstreetmap-is-still-going-strong/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/10/one-man-decided-to-take-on-google-maps-20-years-later-openstreetmap-is-still-going-strong/</a>
