I’m sick of using google maps, they started putting gigantic ads for stores on the map and I’m tired of them tracking me. So I ask you Lemmy, what should I switch to?!

EDIT: Was not expecting so many replies, thank you Lemmy! I am checking out Open Street Maps currently thanks for the recommendations!

    For navigation, I chose Waze.

    There seem to a new wave of navigation apps heading towards us that talk P2P rather than a central server.

      Lol, owned by Google. Kinda defeats OP’s purpose

        You got me! I didn’t look at the title properly. Sorry everyone. I’m going to go be dumb elsewhere for the rest of the day.

        I didn’t know Waze was owned by Google either. Since 2013 as well…
